   От режиссёра

I believe the most vital aspect of art is the ability to reveal the pain and joy of being a human being. The films that made me feel on the deepest level did so because of their unflinching portrayal of reality. Even when some were romantic, they uncovered truth. That was my guiding principle with Nobody’s Boy. As a proud Latino, I feel privileged to have written and directed a bilingual film, carve space for Latinos in my cast and crew, and embrace the abundant culture of Los Angeles in doing so. I believe my life and abilities culminated in this project to create a hopeful message for humanity. My mission is to make thought-provoking work that stirs our consciousness, while being a steward for positive change in the filmmaking industry. I am humbled and grateful knowing I had a team of young and fiercely passionate artists alongside me committed to bringing you this story.
