Chile’s Néstor Cantillana has been a triple threat at the Guadalajara Film Fest (Ficg), starring in two pics as well as “Hidden Island,” a series penned by international sci fi phenomenon Julio Rojas. Cantillana is also developing his second directorial outing with the short, ‘Humedal.”
“This has been my first time at a festival with two films and a series, all so different—from characters to visual style to the unique voices of young Chilean directors. I’m grateful to be here and to feel the love from the people in Guadalajara,” Cantillana told Variety.
Participating in Ficg’s series showcase where its pilot episode played, sci fi thriller “Hidden Island” (“Isla oculta”), co-written by Rojas, Juan M. Dartizio and Felipe Carmona (“Prison in the Andes”), centers on a detective who returns to her hometown in southern Chile to investigate the disappearance of a Mexican archeologist who was searching for the mythical Friendship Island.
