When Alejandro immigrated to the States at age ten from the remote Andes of Perú, Alejandro didn’t know a lick of English. He had to learn a whole new language while dealing with the culture shock of coming from a developing country. But after a few scuffles on the playground he learned.
After he became bilingual, he set out to master another language: storytelling. Armed with a video camera and his maxed out college credit card he set out to teach himself guerrilla filmmaking. Never letting limits (or film permits) get in the way of a good story, he carried this ‘rebel without a crew’ mentality into the world of video production.
Working on his craft like a madman eventually paid off rendering him five Emmy awards and bragging rights at his high school reunion. With a passion turned obsession, Alejandro is always on a mission to liberate his next story.
Man of Sorrows is one of those projects that stays with you forever.
From its tragic love story, message of comfort and redemption, stunning film locations, and the unconditional giving from everyone that came together to make this story come to fruition. It was truly a miracle.
I’m humbled and blessed to have been a part of it.
