Born and raised in Rome, Ludovico Purgatori started out his career as AD on cult series and films such as Gomorrah – The Series, Suburra and Sense8, while producing commercials and short films nominated for the prestigious Italian David di Donatello and Nastri D’Argento awards.
2016 marks the beginning of a lasting working relationship with director Stefano Sollima, which sees them collaborating on international films such as Sicario: Day of the Soldado and Without Remorse, as well as the hit series ZeroZeroZero and the Campari short film Legend of Red Hands starring Zoe Saldana.
Together with Sollima and Gina Gardini, he then founded AlterEgo, which debuted in 2023 with the feature film Adagio, produced in collaboration with The Apartment and distributed by Vision Distribution, competing for the Golden Lion at the 80th Venice Film Festival.
