Aimar Almiron is a filmmaker, producer, and visual artist based in Asunción, Paraguay. Their practice is multidisciplinary and currently situated at the intersection of film production, exhibition and analysis, with a sustained interest in queer subjectivities, memory, and territory, as well as in the ways cinema can function as a tool for research, community building and active reflection on contemporary reality.

Having grown up as a queer person in a conservative environment, they found refuge in a self-taught exploration of different languages—including drawing, painting, photography, animation, and editing—which eventually converged in cinema as a common space. As a result, this medium appears in their practice as an open and hybrid process, always shaped by experimentation, trial, and deviation.

They studied Cinematography with an emphasis on Film Theory and Analysis at Universidad Columbia del Paraguay as a merit-based scholarship recipient. In parallel, they expanded their training through artistic development spaces such as EXPYLAB Laboratorio de Experiencias Inmersivas (2022), Residencia 536 (2023), Residencia Emergentes (2024), the Dinosaurio workshop coordinated by Paz Encina (2024), and the Radicalidad del vínculo lab coordinated by Sebastián Zanzottera (2025). In 2025, they were selected for the Arthouse Cinema Training (CICAE) in Berlin, becoming the first Paraguayan participant to take part in and complete the program.

Since 2022, they have maintained a sustained professional practice in the audiovisual field, with a focus on executive production, as well as directing, editing, and graphic design. Since 2023, they have formally collaborated with the production companies Picante and Cine Mío on fiction and documentary projects with national and international funding. They have been part of the production teams of several feature films such as Green is the New Red (2024) and Under the Flags, the Sun (2025), which premiered at the Berlinale. They are currently producing Yayo the debut feature by writer-director Lara Loncharich, the first Paraguayan fiction film told from a trans subjectivity.
