CIVILIAN #4 Alonso Alvarez
A Mexican walks into a bar… a coffee bar. It sounds like the start of a joke, but it isn’t. When Alonso Alvarez Barreda first walked into Civil, we had no idea we were about to meet an incredible human who has been using his talent as a filmmaker to show the world his love for the work.
In this episode, we talk to Alonso and his journey from Mexico City to Los Angeles in pursuit of his dream of becoming a director. We dive into the challenges, sacrifices, and pivotal moments that shaped his path, and how some of the most powerful stories came to him in the darkest chapters of his life journey.
