Screenwriters

Alfonso Suárez
Screenwriter

After studying screenwriting and film at the University of Guadalajara and New York University, Suárez worked in advertising, but since 1997 has dedicated himself fully to screenwriting. His movies have been shown in film festivals in Germany and Italy. The film Pink Punch (Puños Rosas) was shown in the Guggenheim Museum in New York.

"Screenwriting has always been my personal goal; this is what I want to do in life."

Alfonso writes his screenplays in his home, on his kitchen table.

 

Of Angeles, Flowers and Fountains

Feature-length movie
Of Angels, Flowers and Fountains is an example of the way cinematic art has matured in the state of Jalisco, one of the Mexican states with the most film production. The trilogy is an independent movie created, produced and filmed in Jalisco by three Jalisco filmmakers who seek new ways to tell stories using digital technology.
