Antonio Weiss here. Writer/Director. I wrote produced and directed my last piece, a 30 min short with a female lead, a vigilante scenario in the world of human trafficking.

Although people are reading my scripts, I realize that in order for me to direct I am going to have to force the hand somehow. I just finished a project that would cost around 10 million or more in the USA but probably 1/2 million in Paraguay, where I want to take it. The only way to prove you can direct is by having done it. The love of filmmaking is what keeps us going.

Thank you Karen. No, I would not shoot during Covid19. Paraguay is right now in absolute shutdown. Paraguay and Uruguay have two of the best world records with Covid 19. But I would have to wait for 1 the end of the pandemic, and 2 partners who would be willing to make a film in a place I know for a budget about ten times smaller.
