Bio
Graduated from ESCAC, in 2001 he shot together with Anna Solanas as a final project Black is the color of the gods which became the first short stop motion animation made by the two and which marked the the beginning of a collaboration that is now more than 20 years old. Together they have written and directed sixteen short films. His projects have participated in more than two thousand festivals on five continents, collecting more than a hundred awards, among which a nomination for the Goya Awards, the Mélies d'Argent for Best European Short Film and a Gaudí Award must be highlighted.
Project
HABITAT. 10 peculiar characters inhabit a building from which they have decided not to leave, creating a microcosm that is maintained by completely absurd and surreal internal mechanisms. Until one day a piece of the gear that maintains harmony fails and this microcosm becomes uninhabitable. Habitat is a bloody satire, sometimes a little unpleasant, about the fragile balances that sustain our society.
