Marlon Morales Guerrero (Tijuana, Mexico, 1997). Director / Writer
He studied cinematography at the University of Las
Californias International. His short film ¨Emma or (The
inconveniences of a suicide) ¨ won the category of ¨Best Of Show¨in the Regional Festival of Tijuana FotoFilm in its 2nd edition.
His short film ¨Blood and Rain¨ (Cortando Sangre) participated in the 15th edition of the Monterrey International Film Festival¨ and in the official selection of Lúdico Latinamerican Short Film Festival, among others. ¨Blue Hours¨is his latest short film and it´s currently circling film festivals around the world.
Living in Tijuana. México, I've always known and seen the kind of place I am surrounded. The violence, the constant menace and all this kind of bad stuff, but we also have an explosion of life and movement, even though this is something rarely shown to the outside world.
In ¨Blue Hours¨, I want to show these two worlds that can exist in my city, sometimes beautiful and strange and other times hard and violent. This is why the lead character lives in this frenetic state of mind, sometimes life goes too fast for us. This is the importance of this short film to me, a story about a city and a man that can be multiple things all at once.
¨Blue Hours¨is a story of fast beauty, normality, coffee, love and an immediate death. This is a Short Film made with all the passion I could infuse it.
