Who Am I, What is la ofi-cine, what do I do?
After more than a decade working as a CD and Producer at different advertising firms such as Y&R and Ddb/Needham Panama, AP Lintas or Saatchi & Saatchi Costa Rica I moved to Germany where I began from zero, minus null, I must say, with ocassional gigs at uva, scholz+friends berlin and the FUB.
After I while I though I was ready to follow my dreams and the reason of my studies and
I founded la ofi-cine, a small and fine film atelier located in Berlin with the purpose to coproduce films and film projects between Latinamerica (with focus in Argentina) and Germany.
We (sudden jump of person, deliverated) began producing some shortfilms that fortunately won awards and recognition at International Festivals such as Palm Springs, Sao Pablo, Kerala, Korea, etc. and we eventually started to produce and coproduce feature films.
ACTIVITIES RELATED TO FILM
We also produce and curate the binational film festival ®argenKINO, a nice and very succesful festival between Argentina and Germany kindly supported by Wim Wenders and Harun Farocki, Jeanine Meerapfel, Ciro Cappellari and Bettina Böhler in the Jury. Included in the Celebrations Berlin-Buenos Aires and supported by all the institutions we could image. Please take a look a the site, we're launching the next edition!
So... not much, but, hey! We go langsam und sicher... wir wissen es noch nicht wohin;)
