Jordi Penner

Jordi Penner is an actor born in 1987, based in Trentino, 182 cm tall. His training combines acting craft with a thorough understanding of cinematic language. He graduated with honours in Cinema, Television and Multimedia Production from the DAMS in Bologna, and extended his education through study periods in Amsterdam and California, developing a broad and informed perspective on audiovisual storytelling. In recent years he has deepened his acting practice through focused work in theatre and film, training with professionals in the field and building a stage and screen presence that grows increasingly assured. In film, he takes lead and co-lead roles in several short films, including Il Camaleonte and Blu, demonstrating a natural ability to sustain characters of complexity and inner life. Alongside his acting work, he pursues an authorial practice as director, screenwriter and producer. His films Pietre Sommerse and Amore Cane have earned awards at national and international festivals. This dual perspective, in front of and behind the camera, sharpens his work as an actor: he reads a set instinctively, understands narrative rhythm, and brings to ensemble work the awareness of someone who has led it. In theatre he has performed texts by Campanile and Dürrenmatt, confirming a solid scenic presence and an authoritative physical command of the stage. Jordi is a precise and genuinely curious actor, deeply engaged in the creative process, with the capacity to hold together rigour, sensitivity and vision. A complete and reliable profile, well suited to film and theatre projects that call for interpretive depth, intelligence and a contemporary sensibility.
