Wilderness

An exploration of unknown life in ten deserts around the world. A documentary built out of negligence, misunderstanding, surprise, and mutual amazement; a film that reflects on the idea of community and the relationship between man and his environment: a relationship in which nature, beasts, and human beings depend on each other to continue inhabiting a world that is supposed to be barren.

El Paso

This is a story about the families of those that once were our witnesses, our eyes and our voice, but were threatened, had to leave Mexico and forced to live in exile, seeking for political asylum. It is not about powerful journalists, it is about invisible reporters that represent the weakest links of the news network's chain and now are living in an immigration limbo.

Cuates de Australia

Residents from the ejido (communal land) "Los Cuates de Australia" in northeast Mexico, prepare for a mass exodus every year in search of water during the dry season. While in exile, men, women, elders and children wait for the first drops of water before returning to their lands, a metaphor of a small town that, along the way, hides from death.
