R.I.P. David Gerstein Villanueva (Mexican Film Director)

On July 2nd 2017, the film community lost a rare and true talent.
Mexican art-film director David Gerstein Villanueva passed away
from complications caused by cystic fibrosis. David had recently completed
two short noir pieces entitled, "La Sangre Devota", or Devoted blood (starring Yadira Pascault Orozco) and "Oso Blanco". 

David had unique vision of story-telling, never initially revealing too much information to his viewers, preferring to allow the building blocks of the story plot to slowly reveal themselves. And visually-speaking, his images were absolutely next level.

Other films by David Gerstein Villanueva: Perifoneando con Rufis Taylor (2008), La pena negra: el agua que desemboca(2007), Evitando la extinción del unicornio: Carlos Jurado, fotógrafo (2005), M.O.R. (2005)
