Raphael de Jesus is a Film Director and Publicist from Curitiba, Brazil.
Bachelor in Film from UNESPAR (State University of Paraná), has an experience of 4 years working in advertising agencies, developing content for videos, blogs and social media.
He had directed 3 short films, which got some selections in film festivals like Brukivka Int. Short Film Festival and Festival del Cinema di Cefalù.
By combining two genres, Drama and Science Fiction, I was able to portray a contemporary theme, like domestic violence, in a both creative and universal way.
In this distopian world where women were replaced by androids, a robot-wife can be more human than her unfaithful and violent husband, showing us the importance of keeping what makes us humans.
