Director Bio
Guillermo García López is a Spain-based director, producer and cameraman who works on his independent production company, Sintagma Films. Previously, he has worked as a freelance filmmaker on international feature and commercial productions. Frágil Equilibrio, his first feature documentary film as director, won the Best Spanish Documentary Film award on its domestic premiere, Seminci (Valladolid International Film Festival) in 2016.
A Japanese salaryman in Tokyo, a sub-Saharan community trying to cross the borders into Europe, a family evicted from their own home in Spain. Three stories intertwined on three different continents. This film is a reflection on the path that the human race is taking, on its habits and its relationship with the world. It is a proposal for change, from the particular to the general. We will take this journey with the words of José Mujica, former President of the Oriental Republic of Uruguay.
