SANGRE O NO is a narrative short film about a Latino teenager who discovers that the man he believed to be his father is not his biological father. The story explores family conflict, parent-child relationships, identity, reconciliation, and self-forgiveness as he confronts the foundations of his sense of belonging. As Director of Photography, I worked to translate the protagonist’s emotional and psychological journey into a visual language, using composition, light, and camera movement to explore intimacy, distance, and the instability of identity.

Visual Storytelling:
Led the visual identity, lighting design, and comprehensive color grading to build a cohesive narrative tone and emotional atmosphere.

Award-Winning Execution:
Recognized as Best Cinematographer at the Submerged Film Festival (2026).
