Alberto Montull

Vigo, Spain

Alberto Montull is a Spanish filmmaker born in Vigo, Spain. At the age of 18, he directed and produced Unha illa no medio do mar (An island in the middle of the sea, 2022), a no-budget project he made while finishing high school, taking on all the roles (direction, camera, sound and editing) and for which he was awarded more than 25 awards at national and international festivals. After graduating with a master's degree at ECAM and his first year of a diploma in film, he continued his training specializing in photography direction while continuing to work on various productions. In 2024, he did his first job as a director of photography on the short film BTS, a horror thriller that documents the tensions behind the cameras during a university shoot.

Alberto wants to dedicate himself to film to "tell stories that entertain, teach and transform the lives of those who see them." "There are many films that you see and after five minutes you no longer remember anything. On the other hand, there are others that stay in your memory for years."
