Director Biography - Cadu Rosenfeld

Cadu Rosenfeld is a Brazilian filmmaker. Among his main cinematographic references, genre cinema has always been present - especially the works of directors like John Carpenter, Robert Altman and Sergio Leone - with the spaghetti western being the beating heart of his creative streak.
Director of two short films based on the theme of sacrifice, Rosenfeld presents “Don Javier” as a personal sacrifice of realization, due to the time and personal investments for its creation, dialoguing in a metalinguistic way with the very theme of the short, tracing a intimate parallel between work and author.
Winner of the ABC award for best national academic cinematography, Cadu has a style based on imagery and semiotic power.
