After obtaining my degree in American literature, I enrolled at the ARTTS International stage training centre in England. I experiment as much as possible: from soap operas to social theatre in prisons and mental hospitals and working in films, television and theatre. In Trieste, where I was born, I have for years played the role of Baron Pasquale Revoltella, one of the most charismatic and mysterious figures of the 19th-century Habsburg empire, whose palace is now a museum.
