TEAM

In Anchoíta Films we focus our resources in the development, production and post-production of feature films and documentaries, in the provision of production services as well as in the production of theatre plays.

We are a film and theatre production company that offers production services with international standards.

With an audiovisual DNA, Achoíta Films grew over the years and became a full-service content production company.

Under the leadership of Enrique Piñeiro, quality has always been a way of life.

ENRIQUE PIÑEYRO

Enrique Piñeyro is an actor, film and theater director and producer, airline captain, aviation accident investigator, physician, and chef. He directed Whisky Romeo Zulú (2004), Fuerza Aérea Sociedad Anónima (2006), Bye Life (2008), and El Rati Horror Show (2010), a film submitted as evidence to the Supreme Court of Argentina, ultimately leading to Fernando Carrera’s acquittal. His documentaries have raised public awareness and driven change in Argentina’s judicial, political, and social spheres.

In 2014, he founded Innocence Project Argentina, the local chapter of the U.S.-based organization dedicated to exonerating wrongfully convicted individuals. That same year, he debuted his hit solo theater show, Flying is Human, Landing is Divine, which for 12 consecutive years has sold out Buenos Aires’ most prestigious venues (Teatro Maipo and Coliseo), as well as top theaters across Argentina’s major provinces. In Spain, it was performed at Madrid’s Teatro del Canal, plus Bilbao, Vigo, Avilés, Logroño, Murcia, Barcelona, and A Coruña; in Italy, it was staged at Milan’s Teatro Lirico.

In 2018, Piñeyro launched his restaurant Anchoíta, followed by the bakery Panadería Anchoíta (2020) and the cheese and wine bar Anchoíta Cava (2021).

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Besides generating productions that have a positive impact in society, thanks to our Director, Enrique Piñeyro, Anchoíta Films collaborates and participates with social and/or solidarity projects in many different ways.

After the premiere of the movie El Rati Horror Show, and the subsequent release of Fernando Carrera by the Supreme Court, Aquafilms began to receive uncountable calls and help requests from people with similar court cases. This motivated Enrique Piñeiro to create Innocence Project Argentina, a foundation that counts with a specialised team in justice and security. Visit website.
