This month’s issue of Diversity Rules Magazine features This month’s issue features an interview with Steve Balderson by Paul Hutnick, about Balderson’s “Love Venezia,” a physical and sensory journey, set in the floating city.

Steve Balderson’s Love, Venezia delves into the nuances of intimacy and self-discovery in a world often dominated by superficiality and fleeting encounters. Starring Daniel Bateman as Michael and Alexander Ananasso as the Venician Casanova, Marco, the film is based on Balderson’s real-life experience in Venice, Italy, and is set where the actual events occurred. The character of Michael literally walks the same alleyways and past the same buildings that Balderson once did and the city becomes a metaphor for the passionate affair shared between the two men in that it, too, endures, despite challenges. Writer/director Steve Balderson explains more.
