Hi! I’m Antje,
Assistant Director, Film-maker and Photographer
Born in Spain with French and American roots, her multinational upbringing has carried her to various corners of the world, perpetually echoing her profound affection for exploration and the beauty of our natural surroundings.
​
Antje spent her childhood in between France and Spain before moving to England for university. She graduated with a BSc Honours degree in Film and Television Production from the University of York in 2018 and then pursued an MA in Ethnographic and Documentary Filmmaking at UCL in 2022, where she focused in forced migration and climate change.
​
In 2019 Antje travelled to Thessaloniki, Greece to volunteer during the Syrian refugee crisis and has since remained an active advocate for asylum seekers. Her documentary A Letter to EU Leaders, from Syria was collaboratively made with Syrians currently residing in some of the biggest refugee camps in Syria and Jordan. For her final project for her MA, she made a short documentary about a Ukrainian refugee family’s journey to safety in the UK.
​
Antje’s passion for creating change through photography led her to recording the P.A.I.N movement in 2020 during a peaceful protest at The V&A Museum courtyard in London, holding the Sackler family responsible for millions of deaths due to addictive pharmaceutical drugs, including OxyContin. Her photographs of the event were featured in several newspapers such as The Guardian and other online magazines such as Hyperallergic. As a result of mounting pressure and public awareness, two years later the V&A Museum in London announced that they were breaking their ties with the Sacklers.
​
Fascinated by the ability stories have to transport audiences to unfamiliar landscapes and different worlds, she has spent the last 5 years on major Film and TV sets around the UK as an Assistant Director. She has worked on projects such as Netflix’s The Crown, Slow Horses on Apple TV and most recently on HBO’s House of the Dragon.
