Manuel Muñoz Rivas

Filmmaker, screenwriter, and editor Manuel Muñoz Rivas (1978, Spain) studied at the International School of Film and Television in San Antonio de los Baños in Cuba. He has also lived in England, Chile, and Portugal, but nowadays, Spain is his home base once again. His work explores a familiar geographic area to him: Andalusia. He pays close attention to the aesthetics and poetics of the landscape and the photogenic value of the human face, as part of a hybrid approach that transcends the conventions of fiction and documentary.
