My experimental/documentary short film « blue affair » won “Jury’s Special Mention” in the short film completion at Las Palmas de Gran Canaria International Film Festival held annually in Spain.

This is the original version of my photo book « blue affair ».

Jury’s comment:
”with a work that deepens in the use of light on shadows and shadows on top of light, he makes a complex and satisfactory tribute to the power of cinematographic language. between his blacks and whites you can appreciate a large variety of ideas and motifs, that makes us get lost in his textures to finally find honest and timeless images.”

The festival took place in Las Palmas, the capital of Canaria island from April 9th to 18th, 2021.
