In her own words...
"Every time I have a script in my hands it is like a million doors open to explore the unknown emotions and feelings of someone whose life is different than mine.
I started acting when I was a teenager, I felt it as an escape to my daily reality and something I could do to be away from my problems. When I was acting, when I was reading someone else’s circumstances, I didn’t worry about mine, so that seemed to be a good way to release the pressure of those difficult years every teenager goes through. I was studying journalism and acting for film at the same time, but soon I enrolled full-time at the acting academy. I spent my first year studying Method acting and another 3 more specialising in other techniques. I love the way a movie can immediately touch anyone without words, but with the experience of feeling and living what they see on the screen.
We all have a role to play in the society and a certain way to behave in public, that is our mask. The mask doesn’t mean we are not being ourselves, it is necessary for our daily communication with others. However, when people watch a story it’s like their souls connect with the characters and for a couple of hours they have no masks and a different life. It works the same way for me as an actress, when I am the character on screen I can switch lives and enjoy the privilege of living someone else’s chances."
