ELIANA LAFONE
DOCUMENTARY FILMMAKER & PRODUCER

I am a British-Uruguayan self-shooting documentary filmmaker based in Colombia. I make films focusing on environmental issues, human rights and natural resource extraction.

 

I have produced documentaries for UK channels such as BBC, Channel 4 and ITV, and a range of nonprofits such as WWF, Children Change Colombia, Red Muqui, and BBC Media Action. I have strong editorial instincts and a natural sense of narrative in the edit. I am experienced at working in difficult environments, including: remote locations, institutions such as hospitals and prisons, and alongside activists. I am effective at gaining delicate access to individuals and institutions, participatory filmmaking and producing documentaries of a highly sensitive nature.
