"Carloto is one of the most talented and passionate actors I have ever met, constantly innovating and working on his characters. He manages to project and juggle a series of seemingly contradictory sentiments, that make him profoundly relatable and touching - In Diamantino he manages to make the title character sexy, fragile, funny and strong all at the same time. Diamantino, as a film, was saved by Cotta's talents."
