Personal profile
Expertise
PhD fellow and award-winning documentary filmmaker from Ceuta. My research is focused on vernacular border cinema and migrant self-representation through participatory filmmaking. I am part of the research projects Reel Borders and Cinemahmov. As a filmmaker, I have directed Border Diaries (2013), Hotel Nueva Isla (2014), Connected Walls (2015), Exile Diaries (2019), and Between Dog and Wolf (2020). My films have been screened in film festivals such as Berlinale and Rotterdam and art venues such as MoMA and Lincoln Center. My films and research link the intimate portrait with the landscape as an expression of the political tensions between individuals and nations. More info: https://reelborders.eu/Irene-profile
