Short Profile: Sandro Aguilar
Sandro Aguilar’s filmmaking is a force of nature and his short films unrelentingly powerful, precise and emotive. Almost wordlessly, his films master an alchemy that succeeds in shifting cinematic time.
Moreover, Aguilar’s work is a blood red vein running through some of the most interesting Portuguese cinema from the slice more than a decade he’s been so extraordinarily active. Sandro’s progeny counts not only a bounty of masterful shorts but a feature film – A Zona, involvement in countless more productions as editor, and through the inception of O Som e a Fúria of which he was co-founder in 1998, another clutch of extraordinary films (including Miguel Gomes’s Our Beloved Month of August) have been reliant upon him for their production and full evolution.
And the good news? He’s only just getting started.
