Synopsis
With two homeless lovers’ journey as the through-line, Dirty Feathers weaves in and out of an overwhelmed shelter and a forsaken landscape with fervent echoes of the unheard and neglected. A grieving father who lost his child is paralyzed by unshakable guilt; a veteran living under a bridge recalls his past glory serving the very country that has long abandoned him; and a 16 year-old girl who has seemingly transcended trauma embraces life on the streets with a holy righteousness, becoming the haunting conscience of the film.
Director
His film education began at the local arthouse theater, Fellini Film Cafe. There, he had access to a massive archive of films, old director interviews and classic film screenings each night. Carlos dove into professional filmmaking within the camera department of Roberto Minervini’s Stop the Pounding Heart and The Other Side, both premiering at Cannes and at the Venice Film Festival.
