leandro netzell cerón

I am a documentary filmmaker and international cooperation professional, specialized in climate change and environmental actions, having worked for the european commission and the united nations system among others.

As a documentary filmmaker I work with new ways of exploring north-south problems, globalization and extractivism with the human in the center. I strive to portray the individual within power structures and institutions, from the local to the global.

Chilean-swedish, I grew up between Stockholm and Barcelona, and have been based in France for several years. I speak and write fluent Spanish, Swedish, English, Catalan and French.

I like to work with still and moving image, words and ideas.

I am currently based in Kalmar, Sweden and open for bookings and enquiries.
