Director Statement

Eternidad has been a passion project for several years now. It is inspired by my grandparents who passed away in 2015 and 2021. Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey to have this story made. It comes from a place of love and mourning and I hope that anyone who watches it are able to connect regardless of their background or life experiences. Once again, Thank You!
