Ilana Diamant is a writer, researcher, director, and producer based in Berlin, Germany.

Ilana had been a lover of theater and performing arts before unfortunately not finding any acting or musical talents. She combined her interest in writing with her high school TV addiction and set out to be a screenwriter and filmmaker. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Television-Radio from the Park School of Communications at Ithaca College in 2017, and jumped headfirst into the film industry from there.

Deepening her interest in historical research and spreadsheets, Ilana started working as a researcher and archival producer in 2019. Since then, she has fallen in love with archives, analog preservation, and all of the different subjects the work has led her to explore. She has worked with archives worldwide and across topics such as human rights, sports, fashion, and contemporary art.

She has also worked as an Associate Producer, a Teaching Artist and Teen Program Director leading film-focused education initiatives, and as a Production Assistant on productions of all scales.

Based in Berlin, Ilana is currently working on her directorial debut documentary, a short called OFFBEAT. She also works as a karaoke host. She never stopped screenwriting, and has a pilot and feature in development. When she is not focused on her film projects, she can usually be found vintage shopping, attempting to bake a decent gluten-free chocolate cake, and traveling.
