JULIA'S BIO

Julia Liros: A Global Artistic Phenomenon

Julia Liros and Ludovica Lirosi represent the extraordinary duality of one artist’s boundless talent. As Julia Liros, she captivates as a singer, composer and actress, while as Ludovica Lirosi, she establishes herself as an award-winning director and screenwriter. Fluent in four languages, Julia seamlessly navigates between music and cinema, creating a lasting impact in both worlds.

From Netflix to RAI and Mediaset

Ludovica Lirosi’s documentary, Too Much Stress from My Heart, highlights her storytelling brilliance. Tackling illegal immigration in Italy, this impactful film earned the prestigious Best Foreign Film Award at the American Movie Awards, where icons like Meryl Streep and Clint Eastwood have also been honored. The documentary resonated globally, streaming 2018 on Netflix in the USA, Australia, the UK, and for all English-speaking countries. Originally distributed by Mediaset and now by RAI COM, it solidified Ludovica’s ability to use cinema as a tool for inspiration and change.

Building on her success, Ludovica created Millennials, a TV series distributed by RAI COM and Mediterráneo (Mediaset España Group). This seven-episode dramedy explores themes such as stalking, toxic dynamics, family conflicts, and social media pressures. Julia Liros plays Irene, one of the lead roles in a cast of over 50 actors, bringing depth and relatability to the series. Praised as a generational portrait, Millennials has touched audiences across Europe and Latin America.

Julia Liros: Electrifying Performances and a Unique Voice

As a singer and actress, Julia Liros delivers unforgettable performances. With explosive energy and emotional depth, she has graced major platforms like Rai 2 and the RDS Summer Festival, presenting six original songs written and composed by herself. Julia's stage presence is magnetic, enhanced by choreography that blends seamlessly with her music.

She has shared stages with legendary artists such as Bob Sinclar, Achille Lauro, Elodie, and Tommaso Paradiso, firmly establishing herself as an international performer. Her debut single, "Me Siento Sola", surpassed 1 million views on YouTube and secured her a spot at the BillBoard LMS Festival in Seville, alongside stars like Becky G and Rauw Alejandro. Julia’s performances are not just shows—they’re emotional journeys that leave an indelible impression.

"BABY": A Love Dedication to a Man, to the Love That Few Believe Still Exists

The new single "BABY" will enrich her musical journey with an intense and profound narrative. This reggaeton track explores the theme of love—a passionate story unfolding in the present, with no room for thoughts of the future or the past. It is a love dedication to a man who cannot understand her essence. By overthinking and analyzing everything, he fails to perceive her simplicity and genuineness. The single will be released on all digital platforms on February 10, 2025, marking another important milestone in her musical evolution.

She later trained at the New York Film Academy and Centro Experimental de Cine in Rome, where she produced Desesperados, an award-winning web series that evolved into a 22-episode sitcom.

In 2016, Julia founded LULIFILM, a production house championing independent voices in cinema. Through LULIFILM, she has delivered impactful projects like Too Much Stress from My Heart and Millennials. Julia’s career is a testament to her relentless drive and creative versatility.
