The International Sign For Choking

Narrative Feature Film

Role: Producer, Production Sound Recordist
Year: 2012



“In this foreigner-abroad antiromance, an American journalist in Argentina, searches for a lost love and neglects the new girl (Sophia Takal) he’s taken up with. The film upends expectations at every turn, from the defiantly non-touristic views of Buenos Aires to the tough, unsparing conclusions the story reaches about its adrift protagonist.” — Time Out New York
