SEBASTIAN MARCANO-PEREZ is an experimental filmmaker, born in CARACAS, VENEZUELA and raised in MIAMI, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES.

From surreal and avant-garde narratives to experimental documentaries, he is constantly
evolving in style and subject matter. His previous piece, RETROSPECTION OF A HOME, ONCE UPON A TIME... (2022, Cinemaslam Award-Winner @ the 41st Miami Film Festival) sought to explore the consequences of immigration in the collective memory of a family through an anthropological exercise. Thematically, it evolved into a personal examination of his home country and the roots he had forgotten.

Working in a range of media and an amalgamation of all, he has created his own idiosyncratic cinematic language that he calls "Handmade Folktales." Starting with his upcoming length project, FOLKLóRICO, he puts this visual theory into practice.
