Películas

They Called Him Mostly Harmless
Executive Producer
When an unidentified hiker is found deceased in the Florida wilderness, authorities release a sketch. Multiple hikers call in claiming to have met the man. There's only one problem – he never told them his name. It would take two years, thousands of devoted internet sleuths, and a miracle of science to identify him, and that's when the trouble really starts.

Whose Streets?
Line Producer
Documental sobre los sucesos de 2014 ocurridos en Ferguson, Misouri, cuando el joven afroamericano Michael Brown, de 18 años, murió abatido por los disparos de Darren Wilson, un agente de policía blanco. El dolor, la tensión prolongada y la rabia llevó a los residentes de algunos barrios a celebrar una vigilia en protesta por la tragedia. En los días siguientes, artistas, músicos, maestros y padres se convirtieron en “luchadores por la libertad”, resistiendo, enfrentándose a la Guardia Nacional, exigiendo justicia. Para esta generación, la batalla no fue por los derechos civiles, sino por el derecho a vivir.
Blue Ruin
Script Supervisor
