Ian Santilli

"I-I can't do this anymore." ―Ian Santilli to Ashley Curtis (Theater Scene)

Ian Santilli is one of the main characters in the 2011 short film "Love Is All You Need?". He has been in love with Ashley Curtis in school, but, due to the bad image the relationship has brought to him, ends the relationship so he can avoid trouble. At first, he appears to feel way about Ashley as shes does to him, but overtime, their relationship gets more and more fragile as it gets more and more exposed. It is likely that he, too, experienced bullying as a result of the relationship (Although none of his kind of bullying is shown), and even says to Ashley that his brother found out about their relationship, and threatened to tell his parents who would kill him if they found out. He can be considered to be both a hero (protagonist) and villain (antagonist), as he did side with Ashley and the two of them fell in love, but what he did in the Theater Scene was severe betrayal to her. In the 2016 remake of the Love Is All You Need?, his sister is Paula Santilli.
