A sports enthusiast, with a quick and lucky acting career, Itaco Nardulli at the age of 17, was already the protagonist of important television productions alongside world-famous actors and directors.
Born on September 14, 1974 in Rome, the child of a Canadian mother and Italian father. Fluent in English and Italian, his best-known roles include Identification of a Woman (1982 - Anniversary Prize at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival), and The Secret of the Sahara (1988).
His sister, Cariddi McKinnon Nardulli, also moves in film circles (in addition to acting, among other things, scripts and directorial work can be linked to his name). Their mother, Sheila McKinnon (aka Sheila Nardulli or Sheila McKinnon Nardulli) is a Canadian photographer.
Itaco's first movie role was at the age of 6 in Mi Faccio la Barca (1980), it also starred his older sister Cariddi. In his short movie carer Itaco starred alongside such superstars as Michael York, Ben kingsley, Anthony Quinn, Ernest Borgnine, Gregory Peck (The Scarlet and the Black), Christopher Plummer, John Gielgud, and Renato Cestie (Identification of a Women 1982).
At the age of thirteen he ventured into outer space in the short-lived mini-series Treasure Island in Outer Space (1987 - at the time it was the biggest sci-fi production of Italian television.).
Itaco failed to fulfill his dreams of success. In the waters of the Costa Smeralda he drowned during an underwater fishing trip a few days after his 17th birthday. Itaco Nardulli was on vacation in Punta di Volpe, a promontory near Porto Rotondo, together with his mother and sister Cariddi.
The young Itaco, a sporty physique, passionate about the sea, was reserved and not very fond of social life, went out by boat with some friends, and headed for the islet of Mortoriotto, in front of Porto Rotondo. After some apnea dives, he never surfaced again. The alarm was given by his friends who were waiting for him on a rubber boat. His body was recovered after a few hours at a depth of 22 meters. Any attempt at resuscitation is useless.
In the morgue of Olbia, where the body was transported, were moments of intense emotion. In attendance was his mother Sheila, his sister Cariddi, and a pranotherapist (massage therapist) who was often with to him to treat the muscle disorders caused by the extreme sports he was so fond of.
