3 Lights. A letter to politicians (2013)

Duration 30min.

Format: HD 1920 x 1080

Synopsis:

3 lights. A Letter to the politicians, talk about
what we are as social body directly responsible
for the political power, which is not
disassociated from us but deeply connected. We
are all them in a way. Many of us would steal a
mobile-phone, just found on the street, and
many of us piss in doorways outside. That is our
political and social modus operandi from root,
but with less power. It's just a matter of
opportunity to bring out a greater capacity for
corruption. But Spanish is unreflective. This
movie is a letter from a potential emigrant, a
piece for everyone. 3 lights represent three
enlighted archetypes of a desperate Spain, a
mystical angry, dejected and lucid: Javier. A
sceptical survivor, and is placed on the role of a
mother despite being single, and her brilliant
analysis of our lack of responsibility. And finally a
fool, whom from a bathroom explains what a
politician should be.

The delivering seas (2016)

Duration 29 min.

Format: HD 1920 x 1080

Synopsis:

In a continuous observation of everyday life in
the sea of the Gulf of Thailand, on the island of
Koh Chang, a calendar of miracles is happening
at the edge of a beach and are registered as mini
stories, a visual massage or a set of dances of
the nature.
In this string of small wonders, the camera as a
cinéma-oeile is following the strange beings that
the sea brings us from the hand of composers
such as Debussy, Cage, Bartok and Ligeti.
Not only tourists from Siberia come to these
waters or sellers of coco-sculptures, but also
water nymphs, jellyfish, beautiful insects and
strange sea creatures that inhabit the beaches of
Southeast Asia.
It all starts with the deafening sound of crickets
in the Cambodian jungle, in Angkor Wat, and
ends in Mahahual with a strange character in the
Mexican Caribbean beaches, where giant cruise
ships dock at its port with a beautiful lighthouse.

LONG FEATURES

Boomerang 11M (2008)

Duration: 75min.

Format: video pal 720 x 576

Synopsis:

The major attack that our country has
experienced, the fateful March 11, and the
social and political turmoil that resulted in
the following days serve as an argument for
a documentary that tries to find causes and
consequences of what happened. The story
goes back to the beginning of the Iraq war
and the controversial meeting of the Azores,
to try to explain why Spain became the
target of Islamist terrorism, and how the
government handled the tragedy before the
election. "Boomerang 11M" is a documentary
complaint directly inspired by the movie
"Redacted" by Brian de Palma. Its director,
Arturo Prins, recognizes that after it felt he
had to do something similar in Spain, with
the terrible attack of the 11M line and
management of the tragedy by the
government. To discuss the causes and
consequences of what happened, we go
back to the beginning of the Iraq war and
supported the controversial Bush-Aznar
government, in addition to comparing the
conflict with Vietnam fiasco.

Damn New York (2019)

Duration 78 min.

Format: HD 1920 x 1080

Synopsis:

Damn New York, is a letter-film based on the
travel diaries of a painter during his stay in the
city in 2012. His voiceover runs an atypical
Manhattan; a puzzle of interlocking
neighbourhoods and people that belies the
mirage of a city and its hypnosis, its
disenchantment, the hidden face of its
luminescence, the hidden side of New. An unlove
story letter, far from postcards, a reflection of
ambition.
Damn New York could be the portrait of a
disappointment, a city myth that slowly devours
its inhabitants and requires them, dazzled by the
lights, a devilish contract that exhaust all their
energies. Portrait of newyorkers inhabitants and
not their occasional tourist, those wills running
after a desperate ambition. Succeed or survive.
A trip to a harsh winter, not their low
temperatures but the one you suffer through its
inhospitable cold citizens, dropping the veil of
illusion that this metropolis produces. New York
is not what it was decades ago; their creativity
and strength agonize.
