(Fuck YEAH): Dirty Martinis, Summer Storms, Dice Games & Get-Away driver mentality. (Fuck NO): Small talk. Running to public transport, AI & bigotry.
Raised in Germany with Puerto-Rican, Brazilian and Greek roots, Katharina has lived around the world, spoken on the floor of the United Nations and worked as an Assistant Director on major Hollywood pictures before moving into directing herself.
Her passion for storytelling paved the path to the film industry in 2010 where she began working in Production with a BA in Marketing Communications.
Commencing her work as an Assistant Director on Wes Anderson’s “The Grand Budapest Hotel” she has since worked with A-listers such as Margot Robbie, Johnny Depp, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds, Bill Murray, Saoirse Ronan and many others.
After relocating to London in 2013, Katharina continued to work in the Assistant Director’s Department until 2017 on major motion pictures such as “Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them” filming at Warner Bros Studios. She was later asked to take over as the Director’s Assistant to David Yates, where she gained further experience throughout all stages of filmmaking before transitioning into directing her own projects in 2018.
After a decade of on set experience, heavily influenced by the escapism of cinema and a lifelong desire to reinterpret reality, her films aim to change the narrative on an off screen by spotlighting underrepresented and unconventional stories through emotional and captivating visuals that stick with you like a memory.
Katharina is currently based in Paris.
