Critically acclaimed filmmaker Pablo Proenza has been receiving rave
reviews for his work ever since his break-out film - a 33-minute, 16mm
short titled ViDi - was screened at festivals around the world.
A passionate cinephile from an early age, Pablo was given his first
camera at the age of eight. Since then, he has been working in all
aspects of film production: writing, directing, producing, shooting and
editing. The son of Cuban-American immigrants (an economist for the
United Nations and a gifted ceramicist), Pablo had an international
upbringing (Washington, D.C.; San Jose, Costa Rica; Rome, Italy; Miami,
Fl). During this time, Pablo was educated in two different school
systems (British and American) and grew up fully trilingual (English,
Spanish, Italian). These wide-ranging experiences have had an enormous
influence on all of Pablo's work, including his highly acclaimed thesis
film, Vidi, a futuristic love story chronicling a long-distance
videophone relationship.
Pablo's most recent film is the feature length supernatural thriller,
Dark Mirror (2008), which he wrote and directed.
