What attracted you to Inside Pictures?
I had been thinking about broadening my professional horizon further and learning more about the business of film outside of Spain, especially in Europe and the US. I am aware of the deep changes the industry is undergoing worldwide and I wanted to learn and see how these challenges are being faced in other markets.
