Carlos Reygadas

Mexican film director, screenwriter and film produzent

In the history of cinema, Carlos Reygadas is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Carlos Reygadas as Mexican film director, screenwriter and film produzent.

Carlos Reygadas was born at Mexico City in 1971. His recorded nationality is Mexico. He trained at Mount St Mary's College and Escuela Libre de Derecho.

By this period cinema was global and fragmented: independent finance, festival circuits and television drama competing for the same talent.

The record gives his roles in the industry as film director, film producer and screenwriter.

His name is attached above all to expressionistic cinematography, long takes, and emotionally charged stories. Cinema keeps its people visible long after the industry that produced them has changed shape.

The filmography includes Our Time.

He was nominated for European Film Award for Best Non-European Film.

That the work was made from Mexico shaped it: national industries differ in what they finance, who they cast and which audiences they can reach.

Carlos Reygadas is still working, and the shape of the career is not yet settled.
