[12] His partnership with the network continued, playing roles of production and research in the television documentaries Child Mummy Sacrifice (about the preserved bodies of three Inca children found in the province of Salta), Ghosts of Machu Picchu (broadcast on PBS),[13] Twins (about the experiments carried out by Josef Mengele) and Are We There Yet?

Broadcast by Al Jazeera in April 2013, this production featured renowned soccer player Lionel Messi, who dedicated a few words to the project through a video that was shown at an event in Cochambamba, Bolivia.

[20] A year later, he produced, directed and wrote a new documentary, entitled The Patagonian Bones, about the discovery of the remains of the first Welsh woman who died in Patagonia in 1865.

[25] After five years of work, in 2018 Preve wrote, directed and produced a new feature film, Coming Home, which recounts the events of the repatriation of the remains of Carlo Acefalo, an Italian sailor who died during World War II, from a desert island in the Red Sea to his native country.

The feature documentary tells the story of the Argentine Historian and Egyptologist Abraham Rosenvasser, as leader of an UNESCO sponsored French-Argentine archeological mission in 1961-1963.

The mission involved saving the treasures of the temple of Aksha in northern Sudan, before they were destroyed by the waters of the Aswan dam in Egypt, which was being built at that time.

The film, in which he will work as director, producer and screenwriter, is based on the adventures of the English outlaw Helen Greenhill in Patagonia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

[40] He made his debut as a professional photographer in 2010, donating a portion of the proceeds from his first photo exhibit about the African goddess "Iemanja"[41] to the Doctors Without Borders organization in light of the recent catastrophic earthquake in Haiti.
