Director Statement

Film has always been my first and deepest love, I owe my life to it. Since I was a little kid, films have given me shelter. Through my work, I intend to translate my family's memories to the screen, creating stories that are intimate and emotional, preserving them for eternity. If they are personal to me, maybe they'll be personal to someone else as well. My biggest dream would be to make a young kid feel as passionate about film as I was from the very beginning.

El cine siempre ha sido mi primer y más profundo amor, le debo mi vida. Desde que era pequeño, el cine me ha dado cobijo. A través de mi trabajo, pretendo trasladar los recuerdos de mi familia a la pantalla, creando historias íntimas y emocionales, preservándolas para la eternidad. Si son personales para mí, tal vez también lo sean para otra persona. Mi mayor sueño sería hacer que un niño se sintiera tan apasionado por el cine como yo desde el principio.
