Team

OAK is an agency and audiovisual production company dedicated to the development of documentary projects. We are not a channel, we are interpreters of reality. Our mission is to research and document unique, thought-provoking stories about global issues, and to do so in a way that fascinates the world.

We know that what is told is as important as how it is transmitted, and it is in this work that our narrative perspective makes us unique. Innovation, journalistic rigor and audiovisual excellence are values that we put at the service of our projects, adapting languages and formats with a single purpose: to tell stories.
