Le Leonesse

From the darkness of an African night to the fierce sun of Southern Italy, Samir's life is marked by invisible wounds and memories of blood. Carla, a courageous judge, confronts the 'ndrangheta and her own shadows. Le Leonesse tells a fragile and powerful love story, suspended between past and present, memory and justice, wounded bodies and souls in revolt.
Dacia Vita mia - Dialoghi Giapponesi, 2025

A poetic journey between Rome and Japan through the voice of Dacia Maraini. Childhood, memory, and art intertwine with testimonies, archives, and animations that evoke visions. The film reveals an intimate and universal portrait, where writing becomes a home, memory becomes resistance, and the "we" becomes a vital resource for the future.
The Syrian Friend, 2021
