Francesca Maraki is a writer for film and television. Her short film The Liberation of Harold Kvist, which she wrote and produced, was nominated for a Swedish Guldbagge Award in 2019. The film was her thesis project for Columbia University’s Master of Fine Arts in Film, where she spent four years studying both screenwriting and producing.

Francesca has worked as an episode-writer on the long-running crime-drama series Gåsmamman on TV4. She has also worked as a storyliner and episode writer on one of Sweden’s most popular kids’ shows The Geographer’s Will (SVT).

Other writing credits include the high school drama series Eagles on SVT, which was nominated for a Kristallen Award in 2022, as well as Warner Bros. Sweden’s Partisan. The latter became Viaplay’s most-watched original series and won the Best Series Prize at Canneseries in 2020.

Francesca loves writing anything from dark dramas to adventure, magical realism, and fantasy. She is currently developing an original feature film and is in early development with several TV series.
