Mamántula

Ion de Sosa (Urnieta, 1981), director and cinematographer graduated from ECAM. His first feature film Sueñan los androides was premiered at the Berlinale in 2015 and had an extensive tour in festivals and national and international art centers, such as Viennale, Lincoln Center, Barbican Centre, or the Reina Sofia Museum. It is a free adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s They Dream of Androids with Electric Sheep and reflects the constants of his cinema: the use of 16mm, the frontal and open framing, the mixture of genre with touches of science fiction, a very own use of time and composition and a particular sense of humor. These constants are also found in his work as director of photography in the films of Chema García Ibarra, with whom he has worked closely for years and has co-directed his latest short film, Leyenda dorada, premiered at Berlinale 2019 and was selected in the San Sebastian, Ann Arbor, Palm Springs, and American Film Institute film festivals.
