Born in Germany in 1996, Antonia was fascinated by film, fine arts and performance arts early on in her life and began to work in film and theatre at the age of fifteen. She moved to Los Angeles at the age of 21 to study theatre and dance after dropping her art history and history studies in Munich. Feeling limited in her possibilities of expression in dance and theatre she found her way back to film. After studying classical film production for another two years in Los Angeles, Antonia transferred to Emily Carr University of Art & Design in Vancouver to move towards an experimental approach for filmmaking, which was informed by social sciences, critical theory and the fine arts. In 2021, Antonia moved back to Germany to begin her diploma in film directing at the University of Television and film Munich.
