I’m a filmmaker from Silvi Marina, Italy. Since I was a kid, I’ve always been drawn to stories—telling them, listening to them, and finding creative ways to express them. Over the years, I’ve explored different forms of art, and during high school, one of my photographs was awarded by Oliviero Toscani. That experience gave me the motivation to keep pushing forward.
I studied Media Design and Multimedia Arts at NABA in Milan, and later had the chance to spend time in San Francisco, studying film at San Francisco State University. My first short film, “50 e 50”, was selected by over 20 film festivals around the world, which was a big and unexpected encouragement.
Later, while volunteering in Kenya, I directed “Under the Water”, a short documentary that became a deeply personal project. It was awarded at the Venice Film Festival with the “Diversity as Value” prize—something I’m truly grateful for. I’m still learning, still growing, and always looking for honest stories to tell.
