UNTIL THE SUN DIES (Feature Documentary, 2023)
“Until The Sun Dies” unfolds its stories over co-incidences of the contrary: life born from death, and death from the pursuit of peace and justice. Two intimate portrayals, told side-by-side on simultaneous struggles, woven together into a universal story of courage and resistance. Acclaimed at international festivals, with six awards including Best Directing (Festival de Málaga), Best Cinematography (Achtung! Berlin), and Best Documentary (Sole Luna Doc, Seattle Latino Film Festival, and more).
