Alessandra Forte (b. 1995) is a Psychiatry resident at Sapienza University of Rome, where she graduated in Medicine with a thesis on perinatal depression. Her clinical and academic work is driven by a deep commitment to understanding mental health through a social and political lens — a perspective she further developed at the summer school of the Frantz Fanon Association, where she engaged with postcolonial and critical approaches to psychiatry. Alongside her medical career, Forte has always cultivated a profound interest in the arts and their intersection with the human experience. She believes that storytelling and cinema can offer unique insights into the psyche, particularly in times of collective trauma and political crisis. This conviction brought her to collaborate with director Ludovico Succio as a screenwriter, contributing to the development of narratives that explore resistance, memory, and the emotional fabric of revolutionary struggle. Her writing for "The Way Through" reflects a rare synthesis of clinical precision and poetic sensitivity, grounding the film’s dystopian vision in an authentic understanding of human vulnerability and resilience.
