CURRENT PROJECT:
MATRIARCHY FILM

My main project in the making is a feature lenghts documentary film about the topic of matriarchy. I am meeting wonderful experts on the subject again and will bringt back a bouquet of wisdom how matriarchal societies lived in ancient times and continue to exist today, even projects that span matriarchy into the future.
Filming is planned to take place in Germany, USA, Costa Rica, Turkey, and Greece.
My favored time of publishing will be until summer 2026 to match planet Jupiter dwelling in the sign of Cancer which is a beautiful energy to support a topic that centers the mother.
CURRENT PROJECT:
ASTROLOGY FILM

I am currently working on a doc film about my astrology teacher Giorgia. Since 2017, I have accompanied her with my camera through big life changes aka Saturn transits.
Giorgia and I met when we both lived in Berlin. We first became friends and then I became her student - astrology has always connected us so I might bring myself/ our friendship into the story.
Giorgia Pecora is a 35 year old Sicilian who really lives by the stars. She is incredibly knowledgeable and has a talent to teach astrology in a very unique and entertaining way which is why she attracts many students that also become friends with her. Her Aquarian spirit makes her an amazing community builder. Over the last 8 years I have filmed with Giorgia at the various places she moved to, followed her to an astrology conference, filmed at her astrology themed wedding and on astro picnics with her community.
I would like to tell a positive story about astrology through a contemporary and well educated woman who is one of many who profit from the global boom which astrology has been experiencing over the last years, especially since the crisis. The film is meant to show Giorgias unique character, her quirkyness and big heart.
FUTURE PROJECT: SEASON 2
FROM THE GODDESS

Dea Madre / Mother Goddess - Senorbì, Sardegna, Italy
Season 1 is meant as an first overview of the Goddess world, but it is a work in process since 'the Goddess is a global phenomenon' to put it in Max Dashu's words.
For Season 2, I will dive deeper into the topic of Matriarchy and have a closer look into certain parts of the world, how Goddess was revered here.
SEASON 2 will entail:
- The Goddess in Africa
- The Goddess in India
- The Goddess in Mesopotamia
- The Goddess in East Asia / Pacific
- The Goddess in the Americas
- Matriarchy
I have held a number of interviews with amazing experts already but would be thrilled to hear ideas from you where and with whom I should film. Also, if you know camera women in certain places, please write me an email, I would like to collaborate with other women!
Thank you so much,
