At various times during the 60s and the 70s, the urgency of the struggle triggered “a cinema right now”, underground as well as militant, experimental as much as documentary. That immediate cinema, joyful and conspiratorial, intended to upset the cinematic shapes, its narrow boundaries and its productive logics, as well as to tell otherwise the alternative forms of human inhabitancy. Thirty-seven movies for a home is a visual essay made of film shreds and videotape flats, of fighting women and building speculators, of criticism and action.

I studied analogue photography in a public school of Rome, editing in Saint Denis and documentary writing at ENS Louis-Lumière. Philosophical PhD at La Sorbonne, I also did postdoctoral researches in Media Archeology at Paris IV, ENSA Malaquais and LIRA (Sorbonne Nouvelle). Often exploring different media, I am passionate about history of urbanism, third landscape, found footage, experimental documentaries and creative writing. My short movie "The houses we were" was awarded at the Building Bridges Emerging Filmmaker Awards (Minnesota-USA), IsReal, Festival di cinema del reale (Sardegna-ITALY), Linz International Short Film Festival (AUSTRIA) and Family Film Project (PORTUGAL), and selected in Serbia, Croatia, Spain, Hungary and Scotland.
