Where stories are born from instinct
Inspired by the legendary she-wolf who shaped the destiny of Rome, Lupa embodies strength, instinct, and the transformative power of storytelling. At Lupa Stories Lab, we empower writers, creative professionals, and organizations to craft narratives that lead, inspire, and resonate.
Lupa Stories Lab is our intensive storytelling workshop designed for schools and creative professionals eager to master the art of short narratives. Led by Lud Mônaco, CEO of Mamma Roma Films, an experienced producer and director with a passion for storytelling, this program draws on the success of our internationally recognised Domestika course, with over 3.000 students and 99% positive reviews. Lupa Stories Lab transforms your team by equipping them with foundational tools to organize ideas, set the story’s structure, and identify the core message you want to deliver — helping you craft unique, memorable stories from the ground up.
Lupa Stories Lab is also proud to offer tailored workshops for underprivileged communities around the world, empowering them with the skills to tell their own stories. Whether in Asia, Africa, South America, or other regions, we aim to provide access to storytelling education to those who need it most, partnering with NGOs and local organisations to create lasting impact.
Perfect for advertising agencies, film schools, or any group seeking to spark bold ideas, Lupa Stories Lab fosters creativity and new synergies. Reach out to Mamma Roma Films for more details, join the pack and bring your stories to life!
