My brother, @joncuartas , and I always wanted to have one of our films at @sitgesfestival . This time, 4 years ago, that happened! Our first feature, @heartcantbeat , went on to win Best Feature Film in the New Visions category! @joncuartas also won the Citizen Kane Award for Best Directorial Revelation! This was possible because of @dualistfilms , @mattwigham and @kennyriches . Thank you for believing in us. Also, thank you to all of the cast, crew, family, friends, supporters, film festivals, post houses and more who took part in getting @heartcantbeat made. We hope to be back at @sitgesfestival again soon!

Excited to announce that HERMANO HERMANA will be premiering at @miamifilm ! Part stop-motion animation, part photographic memoir, HERMANO HERMANA follows two siblings who reconnect in a cemetery fifty years later, after sister unburies brother. This piece is quite different than anything we’ve made before. It’s a special one for me. Dedicated to Fabian and Maribel Cuartas.
