About
EL DESPACHO makes documentary films and organizes projects and workshops in which the camera is used in a sensitive, open and exploring way. More than only the technique, what we emphasize is the sensitivity of our perception that enables us to feel connected with the other, with life and with the world around us. In our projects and workshops we stimulate creative and social skills and want to raise awareness about the complexity every human being and the society we live in.
