I was born in Palermo, Sicily, and I am based in London, where I have spent about half of my life and made most of my films.

My first feature film, Shapes, came out of a DIY production process. It was mostly shot inside a living room converted into a film studio, thanks to the DIY genius of photographer Oleg Micheyev and production designer Lili Lea Abraham, who I consider my artistic siblings.
After featuring at the 2023 Sottodiciotto Film Festival in Turin, it went on to screen at venues such as Somerset House and the Garden Cinema in London, as well as in other cities including Liverpool, Berlin, Palermo, Genova and Saigon.

Currently, I am working with a collective of performers through improvisation and filming workshops.
We improvise, film, talk, experiment and see what happens.
Some of the material becomes short films, some becomes longer pieces, and some remains as fragments or experiments.

I call this ongoing process EXPLODING LIMINAL FICTIONS.
I regularly present fragments and longer edits from the workshops at the Members' Scratch Night at the Garden Cinema, which I also host.

From time to time I also work with film festivals, usually in some capacity that involves watching a lot of films.
I enjoy filming real life. I like observing people and situations without knowing in advance what the final result is going to be.
Overall, it is fair to say that I like listening to people, looking at things, filming them and seeing what happens.

And I love talking to strangers, so whoever you are, feel free to drop me an email.
