His debut feature, Lucía, premiered at San Sebastian, and his second feature, Rey, won the Special Jury Prize at Rotterdam. He recently returned there to present his new feature, Animalia Paradoxa.

On the other hand, Elena Pardo is a Mexican artist and filmmaker who has explored formats such as animation, documentary, video installation, and performance.
