Acting credits
Claudia is a girl like many other 20-years-olds, torn between past and future loves, but she has a peculiarity. When feelings overwhelm her, when she get excited or angry, she turns into a creature with white wings, tusks and feline paws. Her story is about abuse and protection, about growing up, about change: but most of all, it is about finding the courage to show others who we really are, and about being ready to take this risk.

5.4The world out there is halted by a pandemic, and during lockdown, an apartment in Rome becomes the same as one in Milan, Naples, Paris, and New York. Each one lives a story identical to all the others, yet unique and personal. Four young people under thirty have been sharing an apartment for some time and, stopped by the infection, find themselves facing shadows bigger than living there. The opportunity to make some easy money at the expense of their shady landlord will lead to a crescendo of tension and delirium. The young people's choices and actions will become increasingly ambiguous as the consequences upend their dreams and hopes, fears and loves, until the unexpected ending.

9.0Three siblings find themselves in their childhood home. There is one thing the mother must say. These are the days before Christmas. There is also a girl, who finds herself living those days with them. It looks so familiar. There is an expectation and a forced closeness. A new fish for the aquarium and an engagement ring. Old school notebooks and a remote control that is no longer found. A ringing phone and an old story of Red Indian shamans. There are certain spirits in that house who are struggling to leave.
