Alice Airoldi is a director and editor from Milano, Italy. When she was 18, she left everything and everyone she knew behind and embarked on a journey to Boston, Massachusetts, to study Visual and Media arts at Emerson College and hasn’t looked back since.

Her award-winning debut short film “The Same Story” tells the story of a friendship falling apart while investigating the anti-war movement of the Seventies and the split that happened between those who embraced violence and those who chose peace. The film has screened in 16 international film festivals, winning awards such as “Best Drama” and “Best Director of Narrative Film”.

Alice looks for underrepresented stories to present a new perspective to audiences. She recently worked as a producer on Fronteiras, an experimental documentary exploring the burden of an immigrant looking for a place to call home. Together, Alice and the team raised $22.000 through crowdfunding to produce the film. Her most recent credit as an editor is on SXSW Audience Award Winner Kestrin Pantera’s upcoming feature film, Pretty Problems. She currently lives in Los Angeles with her partner, local musician Ben Conley, Marcello the cat, and Roxy the dog. She works as a freelance editor and is currently developing her next short film.
