She has just finished shooting "Cirles" directed by Srdan Golubovic, a serbian-bosnian-french-german co-production.Geno lives most of the time in Berlin Germany and travels the world.

The fundamental motivation for a movie, the ultimate and most secret aim, is this magic moment, infinite, unique, were suddenly everything makes sense. A melting point, where the character, the actress, the story becomes one and the truth of the moment hits you right in your face or punches you in the stomach.

Geno is

There is nothing else to imagine

Her truth is unique, strong, uncompromising, sensuous

And this truth will not let you go
