This was the start of her film career, as she managed to find the right balance between her many film shoots and her family life. She collaborated with Longoni, Tagliavia, Lazzotti, Verdone, Bonivento and Colizzi for film and television, and performed her first play at the Ambra Jovinelli Theatre in the comedy “Arrête de pleurer Pénélope”, directed by Massimo Piparo.
