In 1958, her first documentary was released, titled Ignoti alla Città (Unknown to the City). Written by Pier Paolo Pasolini, the film focused on adolescents in Rome's suburbs after World War II.[1]

Mangini died on 21 January 2021 in Rome.[4]

Personal life

Born in 1927 in Mola di Bari, Italy, Mangini moved with her family to Florence at age six, when her father's leather business failed.[5] She then moved to Rome in 1952 and worked in a film club federation, where she met and eventually married Lino Del Fra, with whom she collaborated on several film projects.[1]
