Three feature films as director: La gente de la Universal (1991), El colombian dream (2006) and Tres escapularios (2016). Three titles which have literally upset the Colombian cinema ecosystem. Director, screenwriter, director of photography, editor, songwriter fascinated by a country full of beauty and grief, Felipe Aljure has introduced important narrative and technical novelties into Colombian cinema. With Tres escapularios he created a small masterpiece "only equipped with a Twingo and a camera." In the past, he worked as assistant to Martin Scorsese's Mission, as a production assistant in Chronicle of an Announced Death by Francesco Rosi, director of the second unit and responsible for Colombian casting of L'amore ai tempi del colera by Mike Newell, and editor of Los colores de la montaña by Carlos César Arbeláez, another of the films we will see during the next edition of terre di confine filmfestival. Felipe Aljure is also responsible for the adoption, in 2003, of the Colombian law for cinema. A multifaceted figure with whom we'll soon be able to exchange views during our festival.
Here he was interviewed by Santiago Rivas for EN ÓRBITA / @enorbitaweb.
