Il ragazzo con il libro sotto il braccio
My first documentary about the story of my grandfather Nildo (2022)
Me and my family didn’t know much about what Nildo did during the time of the second world war.
Some years ago he shared with me his diary, written during the two years of captivity in Germany,
from October 1943 until July of 1945. The documentary starts from here.

Tell the truth and don't make up stories.”
M’Barka
A short film for “Emergency” (italian ONG) about M'Barka Ben Taleb, a Tunisian singer, dancer, musician and actress. M'Barka has been living and working in Italy for several years, where she recorded her first solo album, Alto Calore, in 2005. Mainly the author of pieces of ethnic music, she sang several Neapolitan songs in Arabic. The artist's intent is to enhance the deep bond between the two Mediterranean musical cultures, Tunisian and Neapolitan, combining them with neo-melodic sonorities.
