A small uncredited role, in a duet with Jerry Calà, in Arrivano i Gatti (1980) as Drunk actress at the party

Particularly in tune for the sophisticated and refined atmosphere of Fulci's giallo Sette note in nero (1977) as Virginia's mother

Finally her biggest and most important role in Margheriti's Apocalypse domani (1980) as Jane Hopper
Strange that her last film is the one where she can best express her talent as a dramatic actress.
