Director Biography - CJ Torres

CJ Torres [he/him] is a Puerto Rican-born, award-nominated screenwriter and director working at the intersection of culture and narrative.

Marked by a relentless obsession with otherness, Carlos’ work often explores the tyranny of cycles, structures of power, and the way they influence personal identity. His writing gravitates toward rebellious, high-concept stories that utilize genre as a universally accessible framework for shared meaning.

Director Statement

2091 was born from a genuine desire to blend fashion and narrative in the same manner that Ridley Scott's Blade Runner did so in 1982.

Much how Scott drew inspiration from Golden Age Hollywood fashion to design the look and feel of his film, The entirety of this project, from aesthetics to story, was inspired by and developed in collaboration with the Barcelona-based label Zer Collection who design and create garments using 3D printing techniques and sustainable materials. The classic story of struggle against near insurmountable forces, of fighting to create a new way to replace the outdated old, pays tribute to their incredible work.

As writer and director, it was equal parts challenge and pleasure to attempt telling a compelling narrative using just images without a single line of dialogue. The production itself was, without a doubt, the most ambitious thing I’ve ever attempted to do. It almost fell apart at one point, and never would have come together were it not for the hard work and tireless dedication of everyone involved.

It is a great excitement and honor to finally present it, and I sincerely hope you will enjoy it.
