FILMMAKER
Take a look at some of the films and videos I've been working as a filmmaker and videographer over the years.
It's been a wild ride, and I'm excited for you to dive into my creative journey.

"ORO [I pray]"
Short Film, 2020.
The lockdown period was very stressful on many levels. At a certain point, I decided to put all of my energies and emotions into a project. I live with my family in a house with a garden around it and as soon as we were all locked down, I started to develop a certain interest into gardening. I discovered that beauty needs caring in order to make it grow.
I saw beauty in nature. So, I grabbed my camera and began filming.

"Tutti al mare? Anche noi"
Documentary, 2024.
Antonella has loved the sea since she was little, thanks to her grandmother, who taught her to swim. Multiple sclerosis has not taken away the joy of diving into the water, but now Antonella can only do it on equipped beaches that allow her to reach the shoreline. Easy Go Out, the project created by AISM to map accessible places in Italy, provides her with great help. It offers photos, measurements, and all the information necessary to allow those with disabilities to move without encountering obstacles.
This way Antonella spent a relaxing afternoon on the beach in Recco.

Il Carro
Branded Content, 2016.
"We are a reality that lives a passion for the people we meet, for their and our lives. We believe that in every person there is a desire for happiness and self-realization and that work is one of the privileged areas for this to happen. In the disadvantage, both physical-psychic and social, this realization is hampered by the limits and frailties of the individual."

"Awakening"
Short film, 2014.
Sometimes, we find alone, immersed in our thoughts.
We reflect on a life that does not satisfy us, wondering if we have always felt this way. Perhaps there was a time when we were truly happy, a period that now seems distant and unreachable.
But then, suddenly, something happens: a poem, a scent, a color awaken emotions we thought were lost, but in reality, they were just dormant, waiting to come back to life.
