In Runner, the film by Nicola Barnaba that sees her as the protagonist and the only Italian film selected at the Noir in Festival, Matilda Gioli she gave herself a complete act without too many problems. “Aside from having a nude scene in the first film, I wouldn't say there was no awkwardness at all. But it took 10 seconds. I have a good relationship with my body: I don't mind being naked around others, for example in the gym locker room. “At home, the prudes are my brothers, not me or my mother and my sister,” said Matilde Gioli in an interview with La Stampa, explaining that vulgarity is something different.

“True vulgarity is certainly not topless by the sea. It's more about how they – women and men – pose in front of the lens: dressed, but with a wink, provocative poses, sitting in front of the camera with your mouth open…». For the actress, the relationship with the body is something that everyone, especially women, should work on: “It is a message that I also try to convey on my social networks, where I alternate fashion poses and “natural” snapshots. We learn to like ourselves as we areto find the beauty that is within us. Nobody is perfect anyway.

About the passage of time, Matilde Gioli says: “When I look at my old photos, I realize that my attitude and facial expressions are the same, while my face and my body have changed.” But: Hurray! I swam competitively between the ages of 17 and 24: for that reason alone, change is inevitable. Metabolism also changes with age. As Now I have a physique that has become softer, while the signs of aging become visible on the face. I think the joke about wrinkles attributed to Magnani was brilliant, something that needed to be respected and took her a lifetime to develop. Immortality and eternal youth don't make me crazy as an idea.” In addition to “Runner”, in which she plays the role of a girl on a death hunt, we will also see Matilde Gioli again in the third season of “Runner”.
