ABOUT 

I love films that trigger critical thinking, bring humor and are a joy to watch. This is what I look for in my work. I believe in the power of storytelling; the aesthetics of my films are carried by the content. Social issues captivate me and I seek a logical but emotional approach. I thrive on exploring beyond my comfort zone, keenly observing my surroundings, and finding the comic in the tragic. My work is about questioning, challenging and bringing down borders.

Born in Genua, based in Berlin. Italian and German nationality.
