Directors' statement

"The 2 of us, tomorrow tells the story of three young men at a turning point of their lives: that is right before making that first great decision that will force them to face their limits and that will influence all those following. I myself recall the atmosphere of that period, suspended between great hopes and even greater fears. These feelings would have accompanied me for a long time.
For this very reason, when I was about to make my first full feature documentary choosing its topic came natural to me. I was looking forward to delving into a teenager’s life again, the age where everything is magnified – both the positive feelings and the negative ones.
In order to explore the three young men’s lives more deeply, we provided them with amateur cameras: the footage shot by them stands out for its spontaneousness – an authenticity that could unlikely had been rendered by other means – and makes the spectator dive into their lives through an unique gaze."
