Daniel left Colombia and his young son behind to start over in Spain. After a job scam left him with nothing, he found shelter inside Madrid’s Barajas Airport \u2014 which, for months, took in hundreds of people each night with nowhere else to go. Through Daniel, Todo Va A Cambiar<\/em> (Everything Will Change) becomes the portrait of a community suspended between the promise of a better life and the impossibility of reaching it: a film about the hope of those who keep waiting, even when the future never seems to arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Loved Ibiza<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Short film, Spain, 2025, 7 min<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Who Loved Ibiza is a seven-minute, black-and-white portrait of the island, shot in five days during a slow-cinema workshop. Away from the postcard, the film gives itself to Ibiza’s older and stranger nature \u2014 wild, elegant, seductive \u2014 a place that draws you in and, like Homer’s island of the lotus-eaters, quietly refuses to let you leave. Patient and hypnotic, it lingers on the island’s hippie soul and on the mystery of somewhere that bewitches everyone who arrives.
The film was presented and screened at the Ibiza International Film Festival (IBZCF) in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luz y Amor<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Short documentary, Cuba, 2024, 12 min<\/em><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

At Quisicuaba, a shelter near Havana known as the Casa Naranja<\/em> \u2014 the Orange House, orange being a color of hope in Cuba \u2014 people arrive carrying addiction, trauma, and years of being overlooked. Luz y Amor<\/em> follows Rosita, a retired nurse who has devoted her life to caring for them, and the small daily rituals through which a place of hardship becomes, unexpectedly, one of calm. Observed with patience and natural light, the film looks at care as a method \u2014 and at love and human attention as what allows a life to begin again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
