About

I'm an independent reporter, writer and director working in the Middle East (Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, Tunisia) and in Italy. My works focus on women, civil society, conflicts, the environment, migration and organized crime. My stories have been published by Al Jazeera, Libération, Deutsche Welle, CNN Antony Bourdain, Christian Science Monitor, Radio Swiss Television, Middle East Eye, Ozy, Roads&Kingdoms, Lifegate, Al Monitor, The Nation, Slate, The New Humanitarian, Internazionale, Repubblica, La Stampa, among others. In 2018, I directed and produced “Donne fuori dal buio”, an interactive webdoc which traces the stories of four Iraqi women fifteen years after the US invasion. In 2019 I wrote and co-directed the documentary "Iraq: Youth on the frontline", broadcasted on ARTE. In 2020, I wrote and produced “Iraq without water“, an interactive and multimedia webdoc, the story of young Iraqi environmentalists who fight to protect the right to water. For my reports during the siege and liberation of Mosul and Raqqa, I won the Ivan Bonfanti Prize, the Mediterranean Journalist Award, the Golden Dove for Peace Award and the international prize “True Story Award”.
