DREAMTOWN
ASSOCIATE EDITOR
I collaborated closely with the director, editor, and story consultant to shape the documentary’s narrative, defining its flow through themes and character arcs. I organized and managed incoming footage, creating selects from interviews and b-roll, and contributed to the edit by assembling and refining scenes from both interviews and interstitial moments.
ABOUT THE FILM
Inspiring story of three young Ecuadorian soccer players chasing success in the face of extraordinary challenges. Entwined with their athletic dreams are the hopes of all Afro-Ecuadorians, for whom soccer is more than a sport but the means to recognition and respect they have long been denied.
Directed by Betty Bastidas.
The film has received HBO/NALIP Documentary Award; Ecuadorian Film Festival NY, Winner Best Film Jury Award 2016.
