Film Commission Torino Piemonte

I love writing stories. It was not in my planning to direct a documentary, but the diagnosis of intergenerational trauma changed my life in so many ways, prompting me, among other things, to take this step. With this film I set myself two goals: the first is to tell the personal, intimate and warm story of a pain that crosses three generations, languages and cultures; the second is to investigate an increasingly debated phenomenon: it is the subject of bestsellers like “Emotional Inheritance” (Galit Atlas), and it’s also the concept behind blockbusters like “Everything Everywhere All at Once” or “Encanto”, but for the general public its dynamics are still a mystery. The way this story is told mixes fiction and non-fiction, and has the of a long letter to my daughter, because the point of this research is precisely to unveil the secrets that my family has been carrying for three generations, so that the fourth - my daughter's - will not receive the pain we have experienced.
