About
I am a Chilean writer currently based in Barcelona with a
BA Honours degree in Spanish Language and Literature
from Universidad de Chile and a MA in Creative Writing from
Universidad Pompeu Fabra Barcelona. The focus of my
fiction explores the complexity of human relationships and
focuses on modern female characters that face personal
and social challenges and do not wish to conform to the
models imposed by society. I have published the short
story collections ”En el agua” (2015) and ”Rudas” (2019) and
the novels “”El Final del Sendero”” (2018), and ”Nostalgia
del desierto” (2021). I teach at several writing and reading
workshops in Santiago and Barcelona and have an inherent
interest in the natural world and its conservation. I also work
part-time for a UK registered charity Rainforest Concern to
help manage their wildlife reserves in Chile.
Tregua
My project was a full length feature film that explores the
relationship of two sisters in their mid 30’s after the death
of their mother. It is set in the south of Chile in 2020. At the
beginning of the film, the sisters are in non speaking terms,
but they are forced to work together in renovating the family
home before selling, it because they are both struggling
financially after their mother’s illness. The movie deals with
issues such as family, illness, loss and career expectations
that haven’t been met.
