About me.
I am a writer and director based in Berlin, Germany. I began my film studies in Bogotá, Colombia, before transferring to the German Film and Television Academy in Berlin, where I graduated in October 2024. In 2023, I directed my first feature film, The Good Sister (formerly Blue Marks, wt). It was showcased in the WIP Europa section at the 72nd San Sebastián International Film Festival, where it won both the WIP Europa and WIP Industry awards and was picked up by New Europe film sales. The film will have its world premiere at the 75. Berlinale Panorama section 2025.
I craft films driven by their characters—layered, dynamic, and deeply human. No matter how fantastical, the stories I tell reflect and engage with the world around us.
They’re made to provoke thought, emotion, and connection.
