ABOUT OMAR
A universe inside every person.
I grew up in Peru and take on projects worldwide. Wherever I go, I work with local crews, bringing my storytelling experience together with their insight into the culture and relationships that shape each story.
Food often opens the door, but the films are really about the people, the stories they carry, and the choices that shape their lives.
I direct documentaries for brands and organizations with the same ambition I bring to my independent films: to make something people would choose to watch.
