Amaranta Asiri Kun Radovic (born 10 December 1993) is an Italian-Peruvian actress established in Lima, Peru.[1][2]

Life and career

Granddaughter of Natacha's and Simplemente Maria's actor and producer Vlado Radovich,[3] she studied at the Franco-Peruvian School Lycée Franco-Péruvien, where she showed a vocation for stage arts since age five, acting and directing in school plays, improv groups, courses and workshops in theater, ballet and contemporary dance. At the age of 10 she was cast[4] in the movie The Trial by Peruvian director Judith Vélez.[5][6][7][8]

Her first starring role was in the America Televisión's 2014 miniseries Camino al Triunfo, a TV show about the rise of Latin American lightweight boxing champion Jonathan Maicelo.[9] After finishing production she moved to Lyon to study acting at the ENSATT under the direction of Philippe Delaigue.[10] In 2016 she passed an audition to be a part of the Comédie Française as an academic actress where she performed in their world premiere for Pathé Live.[11][12]

She currently resides in Peru, where she participates in several theatrical projects. In 2021, she became a founding member of A Mí No Me La Hacen,[13][14] Peru's first media literacy association, providing workshops in schools, universities and institutes all around her country. In 2021, this association won a prize at UNESCO's Global MIL Awards.[15]
