Available to hire
Hola, soy Izabela Silva. Soy cineasta documental y montajista con base en Barcelona. En 2018 fundé Abre Caminho Films para impulsar proyectos audiovisuales centrados en el cine real realizado por mujeres, y entre mis trabajos destaca el documental Yo No Soy Cineasta. También he colaborado en la difusión de perspectivas feministas a través del portal Sara y Rosa, donde participé desde la edición y el montaje.
Actualmente combino dirección, montaje y supervisión de postproducción en proyectos autorales y de coproducción. He trabajado en títulos como The Guardians of the Microcosmos (dir. Martin Schilty/Joris Van Alphen) y Agnès Varda: Del otro lado del espejo (dir. Mercedes Álvarez), y estoy desarrollando Yo No Soy Cineasta mientras participo en iniciativas como DocsBarcelona Talents 2024. Vivo entre Barcelona y Belo Horizonte, y sigo explorando historias reales con una mirada crítica y colaborativa.
