Biography

José Luis Guerín (born 1960) is a Spanish filmmaker and educator, known for his meditative  and intellectually curious  work in both documentary and narrative filmmaking.

Describing Guerin in an introduction to a series of his films, the programmers of the Harvard Film Archive wrote: "Guerín's films purposefully confound narrative and documentary traditions, discovering rich narrative threads woven into the tapestries of his real life subjects and unraveling mysteries without solutions that nevertheless leave the viewer deeply satisfied."
