Project
While at Faberllull, Belén Pasqualini will finish writing her screenplay based on the life of her grandmother Christiane Dosne Pasqualini, a leukaemia researcher who was born in 1920 and lived to be 102. It is a 100% independently produced script that she is currently working on with two Argentinian colleagues. The film will tell the story of Christiane’s life, also honouring hundreds of women in science who haven’t got the recognition they deserve. A biopic in the style of the film about Marie Curie, which will be a reference for the project.
