Through narration Sara tries to dramatize the present conditions into science-fictional futures. Her focus is on the threats brought by the climate crisis, and the eventuality of human extinction. Sara believes in the potential of storytelling as an engine able to intensify realism, and wake us from mass apathy.

For her diploma Sara presented two diagrams and a timeline. She used them to explore the problematic of mass apathy, inducted by a lack in the intellectual and affective predisposition to conceive the enormous changes that are occurring. There is a need for new language and narratives to visualize the long-term. A dive into the deep past - through Earth’s geological history - and into futures - through science fiction - can help grasp the crisis.

During her master Sara developed a short movie called "Playa Selkirk". The story follows three researchers during their attempt to scientifically analyze the state of a beach. The narration is an allegory of the tries of science - sometimes merely consolatory - to collect data on the catastrophic state of the Earth and prevent an environmental collapse. At the end of the mission each of the three researchers will manage in their own way the despair caused by the impotence in face of the inevitable: the extinction of the human species.

As her master thesis, Sara wrote a science-fictional novel called "The Island of the Day After: Atemporal Investigation in a High Entropic Future". Two generations are represented by two female characters: Ananke and Deborah. The first one leads an investigation in the city of Venice, around the year 2020. In 2044, that same work is found by her daughter Deborah, who goes through it with the eyes of the future. The novel is a prequel of Playa Selkirk.

Both works focus on the emotional implication of the crisis. With her research Sara explores the feelings of powerlessness, hopelessness and despair, that eventually lead to a sort of eco-nihilism.
