Biography

Born in Florence, at 17 years old Malfatti moved in Paris where she attended the Cours d'Art Dramatique, the drama school founded by René Simon.[1] Two years later, after returning to Italy, she obtained a scholarship for the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia and started appearing on films and on stage with some small parts.[1][2]

In theater was launched by Arnoldo Foà who chose her as his co-star in the play Two for the Seesaw by William Gibson.[1] Hence Malfatti began a career filled with both brilliant and dramatic roles.[1]

During the seventies she was an icon of Italian horror films, especially of demonic background.
