CARLOS MARCOVICHCinematographer<br />
Cinematographer and Director. He came to<br />
Mexico on 1976. Part of Emmanuel<br />
Lubezki’s generation, Marcovich’s carreer as<br />
cinematographer started with El Camino<br />
Largo a Tijuana (Dir. Luis Estrada, 1987).<br />
His job made Dana Rotberg call him for her<br />

Desiertos mares (Dir. José Luis García Agraz, 1992); Dos crímenes (Dir. Roberto<br />
Sneider, 1993) and El callejón de los milagros (Dir. Jorge Fons, 1994).<br />
His first feature as Director, ¿Quién diablos es Juliette?, was presented on Festival<br />
Internacional de Nuevo Cine Latinoamericano de La Habana, also on Muestra de Cine<br />
Mexicano in Guadalajara and on the Sundance Festival (Winner of Best Latin American<br />
movie).<br />
There are different unusual characteristics on this film, besides the lack of script, it was<br />
entirely illuminated with natural light, any of the main characters are professional<br />
actresses. ¿Quién diablos es Juliette? Was exhibited in Guadalajara. Based on his<br />
experience in musical videos, the movie has its own languaje similar to videoclips.<br />
After this movie, we worked again as cinematographer for movies like Comandante (Dir.<br />
Olvier Stone) in Spain; The Documentary America Undercover (Dir. Jon Alpert), and<br />
Cuatro Labios, Timbiriche: La misma piedra, which he directed. His last work was South of<br />
the Border, (Dir. Oliver Stone).<br />
Carlos Marcovich is coming back to the world of cinema after a break of ten years, to do<br />
the cinematography of THE OTHER FAMILY, which is right now in post-production.
