"Francesca Fini is an image-woman. Her moving images are provocative devices calling up passions and emotions: they show a body amplified by technology, whose animal and biological nature is left untouched. Her performance art videos are not mere recordings, but short films full of captivating genius"
(Alessio Galbiati - Digicult magazine)

"Francesca Fini è una donna-immagine. Le sue immagini in movimento sono dispositivi provocatori che richiamano passioni ed emozioni: mostrano un corpo amplificato dalla tecnologia, la cui natura animale e biologica non viene intaccata. I suoi video artistici non sono semplici registrazioni, ma cortometraggi pieni di accattivante genialità"

Hippopoetess is a psychedelic film, visually bulimic, fiercely feminine, sprinkled with poetry that becomes image, 3D animation that becomes pure color, performance art that intertwines with the aesthetics of video games, distilling everything into an experimental documentary that tells the story of the Imagist poetess Amy Lowell, the hippopotamus poetess, as Ezra Pound called her.

OFELIA NON ANNEGA (Ophelia did not drown) is a layered film, a film made of hybridizations. The film was produced with Istituto Luce Cinecittà, weaving a dense visual and sound dialogue between the material of the Archive and the original performances developed by Francesca Fini, author, and director of the project. The film has been inserted by the critic and film historian Adriano Aprà among the best Italian films of all time.
