About me

I am a film restorer and researcher from Argentina, now based in Berlin.

After my first experience as a junior scholar in film history I started to ask myself more and more about the source materials of our research. Where do our movies come from? How can we access to them? How were the DVD and VHS we used to watch created? What happened to the “lost movies”? Why do we always seem to write the Film History around the same canonical titles?

Then I shifted my focus on film preservation and restoration. I moved to France to study at INA. My Master thesis was about the unidentified fragments in the National Film Archive of France (now Direction du patrimoine cinématographique at Centre National de la CInématographie).

After working as a film archivist in Paris I moved to Portugal to work at Cineric, as a film restoration artist. Then I moved to Berlin to work for Pharos.

I have always been proactive and curious, so I collaborated in different projects in the meanwhile.
