I am an Italian freelance journalist. I have worked mostly as producer and video journalist for short features on social and cultural topics in Italy and abroad, including for Associated Press Television News. I can shoot and edit and I am looking for new opportunities to film in my home country.

Caterina was really easy to work with, she needed very little guidance and produced a video that was exactly what we were looking for at the first time of asking with only minor feedback required. Ana's shot choice was great and she got a really nice interview from her subject. She was very quick to turn around any changes and delivered all the assets requested to a high standard. We would definitley work with her again.

Caterina is very communicative + is excellent when it comes to deadlines. She delivered all the material on time and was quick with edits. Would highly recommend working with Caterina.

His name is Adrian Rodriguez Cozzani and his passion is time, the way it flows and the way we keep track of it. He builds hourglasses in his small workshop in Trastevere, a colourful neighbourhood in Rome. He fills them with sand and they count the time ranging from 2 minutes to 2 hours. He builds almost 1000 of them a year. He says that hourglasses help you live time in a better, fuller way.

Traditionally Italy is a country of farmers and breeders. Of course this has changed over the course of time. But not for Roberta Colombero, 29 years old, who tends to her herd of cows in Piemonte (North-West of Italy). She is a "malgara", from the word "malga", the small house up in the mountains where herders take their cows during the summer. A peculiar job for a girl so young.

Vilma and Paolo were born in Turin in the 60s in a “cascina”, a farmhouse. Following urban expansion, fields no longer surround the area and work is divided between the cascina and the crops outside Turin. It is hard to be farmers who do not live on their own land. Their story opens a window on a country that is still much rooted in its rural past and where agricultural workers need to compromise.

Michele Gentile is the owner of a bookstore in Polla, Italy, with a population of just over 5,000 people. And yet, he has started an initiative that is resonating all over Italy. In his bookshop, children can exchange a plastic bottle and a tin can for a brand new book. The idea was to tackle two big issues at the same time; getting children to read more and teaching them how to take better care of the environment, and the initiative seems to be working. Hundreds of students have participated, from schools all over Italy and Gentile hopes the idea will spread even further. “In the world, there are 2 billion children and adolescents and if all of them would recycle a plastic bottle in exchange for a book, the world would be a very different place,” he said.
