“I am an actor with 15 year of experience in theatre, cinema and brazilian novels. In 2020 I decided to open a independent producing filmmaking company in my city, Vitoria, State of "Espirito Santo" in Brazil, named "Kambaku Productions". At that time, I was working offshore as safety engineer in a oil and gas platform and as we were passing trhough the COVID-19 pandemic situation, I used to stay up to 14 days in a hotel room, without external acess, before embarking, as "pre embark quarentine" protocol. At that time, I wrote "Ilhado" script and decide to open "Kambaku Productions". Ilhado was the first film of the company, with contribution of friends and friend's producing companies. Now, I just released the second film of Kambaku, named "Marinho", with my direction. "Marinho" is a documentary of a poluted river in the city and neighborhood that I grew up. The river has a very important aspect in the Espirito Santo's History and our main goal is to recover this river.”
