8/2/2021 The Gift of Time - "I wish you the time to live" SHARE ON: Ferretti Yachts 1000, the new fleet flagship, is celebrated with the short film “The gift of time”, directed by William9. Spending time with the people we love, waiting for night to fall to admire the stars, finding the positive side of every situation, growing and being amazed by the little things: in a fast-paced world that has accustomed us to the frenzy of the moment, some things still need time. “The gift of time” is the short film directed by William9 to present the new Ferretti Yachts 1000, through the words of the famous poem “I wish you time” by Elli Michler. It is a story about the Italian way of life, about conviviality and love, but most importantly about the importance of knowing how to savour every moment. Three generations are reunited on board the yacht to celebrate the most precious gift that life can offer: time. The soundtrack - “Il Mondo”, written by Jimmy Fontana and performed by Alessandro Ristori - accompanies exquisitely Italian imagery, where life is a continuous succession of love stories and emotions. Ferretti Yachts 1000, the largest flybridge model ever built by the brand, was born in time to be timeless, just like moments of life on board, which are transformed into indelible memories. “This film celebrates time, one of our most precious gifts and for yachting enthusiasts a key indicator of happiness, because more time means more destinations, more swimming and more sunsets. I agree with Seneca, who two thousand years ago proposed severe punishments for anyone who stole even just an hour of our time,” commented Ferretti Group CEO Alberto Galassi. “Our majestic flagship Ferretti Yachts 100 is an invitation for you and your loved ones to make the most of the gift of time, on a boat where every space and detail are designed to maximise the pleasure of living on the water in the utmost comfort. It is a boat with the wonderful sense of hospitality that comes naturally to us Italians, and the song ‘Il Mondo’, which provides the film with its soundtrack, pays tribute to our unique and inimitable way of life.” Working with us on this great project were some exclusive partners: Dolce&Gabbana, Galleria Tornabuoni and Pisa Orologeria. Three brands that, like Ferretti Yachts, bring excellence to the world. The film was given its premiere at the Belmond Hotel Cipriani in Venice and is now available on Ferretti Yachts and Ferretti Group social media channels. Based on a concept by communication agency Undesign, the film was produced by Sedici:9 and LMC Vision.
