Jasmine Trinca
She made her debut in cinema very young, in 2001, chosen by Nanni Moretti for the role of Irene in "The Son's Room". From there she started a fruitful career in acting, which brought her to collaborate with important directors (Taviani, Giordana, Diritti), and to win several awards for her performances (Nastro d'Argento Award, Marcello Mastroianni Award, Un Certain Regard Jury Award for Best Performance etc.). "Being my mom" is her directorial debut.
