My guest today is co-writer/director Irving Serrano and the documentary short film VOICES FROM THE ABYSS. Irving Serrano studied the Film Production Course at Centro de Capacitción Cinematográfica and a Bachelor's Degree in Cinematography at Centro.
In 2021, his short film A Charming Man obtained an honorable mention in Shorts México.He produced the short film ¡Beso de Lengua! that won as best Mexican short film in Guanajuato International Film Festival and was selected in Tribeca 2024.
VOICES FROM THE ABYSS, a short documentary film about La Quebrada Cliff Divers with the support of the Mexican Institute of Cinematography official selection at many international film festivals and winner of best documentary short in Cine Las Americas 26 and winner of the best Ibero-American Film at Guadalajara International Film Festival.
Ladies and gentlemen, La Quebrada Cliff Divers in Acapulco, Guerrero, earn their living by diving 100 feet into the sea from a dangerous cliff as part of a thrilling show at La Quebrada. In Voices from the Abyss, we explore the nature of their dives through slow-motion footage, personal testimonies, and an original poem recited by the divers themselves.
VOICE FROM THE ABYSS is a beautiful film showcasing the beauty of cliff diving, but also the dangers. You will be amazed at how young some of these divers are, but there is a spirituality to their diving that only they have experienced.
I remember watching these cliff divers from American television back in the 1970s and 80s and it is still as awe inspiring today. #cliffdiving #cliffdivers #documentary #shortfilm #filmmaking #filmmaker #filmdirector #acapulco #mexico #cinema #film #movie #freemovies #youtubemovies #moviestowatch
