In a Peruvian city corroded by an eternal and indifferent winter, an androgynous man faces a future without his lover, who suffers from an unknown disease.

Peruvian filmmaker and alumnus of La Fémis - Université d'été, Berlinale Talents, Oberhausen Seminar, and Talents Buenos Aires. His passion as a filmmaker arose from the memories of his family, his identity as a member of the LGBTIQ+ community, and social justice. Since making films, Carlos has developed an interest in recreating different worlds within absence and faith. He’s currently developing his first hybrid feature film, The Scent of Walls (Moulin d’Andé Residency 2024). In 2023, he won the Mastercard Enablement Program Fellowship for the project TranStories at the 73° Berlin Film Festival. This project is a one-of-a-kind creative documentary lab for the trans community in Peru. ? His recent fiction short film, “The Distance of Time,” has been selected in over 20 film festivals, including Locarno, Oberhausen, and Raindance. His second fiction short, The Weight of Air (Greek Film Center Award), won the Peruvian National Fund and is currently in post-production. In 2019, he published “The borders of transsexuality in Latin American cinema,” an article about the representation of trans women in six Latin American films. For seven consecutive years, Carlos worked collaboratively in the production field of Song Without a Name by Melina León (51° Quinzaine des Réalisateurs).
