Audiovisual is intensely present in our daily lives. What motivates us is the ability of telling compelling and engaging stories, that shall leave in the public’s memory images created with affect.
For each screen, a proper way of presenting images and sound. For each theme, a special attention for research and production. For each viewer, the possibility of a new angle.
The production company AION FILMES has been established in the audiovisual market in Rio de Janeiro and Brazil since 1997 when it was founded by partners Eduardo Goldenstein (director and screenwriter) and Katya Goldenstein (producer). Aion has a qualified and experienced team of collaborators, and is able to deliver the most varied audiovisual products, whether for tv, streaming, or cinema.
