DoctoraStories was founded with a clear purpose:

To bring powerful, often-overlooked stories to the screen. Sarah’s background in human rights and gender research shaped her understanding of the deep impact storytelling can have. Her work with the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo and years of field research revealed the importance of preserving history through the voices of those who lived it. This understanding led her to film production, where she could connect research with creativity to ensure these narratives reached wider audiences.

Since its founding

DoctoraStories has remained committed to producing films that challenge perspectives and create meaningful dialogue. The company collaborates with filmmakers, activists, and scholars to amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard. Each project is driven by the belief that storytelling is a tool for justice, education, and cultural preservation. Through documentary filmmaking, DoctoraStories continues to shed light on stories that shape the world.

The Four Pillars of DoctoraStories

Truth in Storytelling

Every film is crafted with real stories, making sure that history and lived experiences are accurately represented. DoctoraStories believes that authenticity is the foundation of impactful storytelling and exsists to lift up the voices of those at the center of each narrative.

Amplifying Marginalized Voices

DoctoraStories is dedicated to telling stories that are often left out of mainstream media, by focusing on human rights stories, activism, and social justice.

Film has the power to inform and inspire action. DoctoraStories partners with educators and universities to bring films into spaces where they can spark conversation and encourage learning beyond the screen.
