Anabel Rodríguez
Anabel Rodriguez’s initiation in the arts began in the theater, having worked in an experimental theatre group (Taller Experimental de Teatro) for several years before having left for London. She graduated as a filmmaker at London Film School, where she directed four of her first films. One of them, a short documentary, called ISAU, confirmed the connection Anabel has with marginalized people. Her camera looks straight to her subject, and this way of viewing reveals somehow the inner worlds of people. It’s a view that stops in apparently meaningless gestures.
