I\u2019m a filmmaker, journalist and musician with a deep connection to culture and human stories. My work explores the emotion through the lens, capturing moments of authenticity, beauty and shared experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the years I\u2019ve directed documentaries focused on migration and human rights, using cinema as a way to promote empathy and understanding across borders. My latest work, \u201cHuma\u201d, was selected at Malaga Film Festival and received the prize to Best Documentary Film<\/strong> at Festival Rellisqu\u00edn 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

I have also recently worked making documentaries and audiovisual content for Ethno Denmark<\/strong> and Labyrinth Catalunya<\/strong>, musical events that deeply inspired my approach to capturing cultural events through filmmaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What drives me to documentary filmmaking is not only reality itself, but the emotions that emerge from every breath and every silence. A space where we connect beyond words. I\u2019m interested in immersing myself in that energy to develop a cinematic narrative that reflects the soul<\/strong>, with sensitivity and artistic vision. Interviews are an essential part of my process, as I love connecting with people, listening deeply and giving space to voices that carry meaning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
