Assistant editor Editor Trailer editor

Private Contact

Hi! I’m Maria, a 32-year old film and trailer editor with a MA in visual anthropology.

Over the last 10 years I edited documentaries that were screened at festivals such as Vision du Reel or Ji.hlava IDFF.

When I'm not in the editing room I like to learn new languages, travel or play the violin.
