Director, screenwriter, and editor. She works between documentary and fiction, though she’s somewhat skeptical of that distinction. She made her feature directing debut with Fico Te Devendo uma Carta sobre o Brasil, awarded at some of the world’s leading documentary festivals. Since then, she has balanced authorial projects and commissioned work, with varying degrees of obedience.She created and wrote the series A Vida Pela Frente for Globoplay, where she also served as editing director.Her work is rooted in reality, but has little interest in preserving it untouched. She is drawn to projects that explore language and emphasize point of view, combining sensitivity with a subtle inclination toward discomfort. She also directs films for brands. The principle remains the same: every story deserves its own perspective, even when born from a briefing.
