After Annabelle partagée (1991), never released in Italy, she directed the tv documentary "Elsa Morante" (1995, part of a series dedicated to famous writers) and "Shakespeare a Palermo" (1997), a documentary about the staging of a Carlo Cecchi play.

She was back to feature films in 2001 with Le parole di mio padre (2001). Along with many Italian directors she contributed in July 2001 to a movie reportage on the Genoa riots.
