His first feature, Quebrando a Cara, started in 1977 but released only in 1986, is a 16 mm documentary about the career and fights of boxer Éder Jofre.

His next film "Festa" received the award for Best Film at the 1989 Gramado Festival. In 2004, the Aplauso Cinema Brasil Collection, from the Official Press of the State of São Paulo, published the volume "Ugo Giorgetti - o sonho intacto", by Rosane Pavam.
