Possible Days - Trilogy on Tenderness TrailerWhite tulips TrailerLo deseado Trailer

Ismael Zgaib was born in a small town, almost at the edge of the world in Patagonia, Argentina. A place where the desert meets the forest and the high mountains, where the ground cracks from the heat right next to a powerful river. This aspect impacted him forever and is something that shows in his writing: stories that explore the edges, the limits. Stories crossed by the value and understanding of solitude and vast places that may seem unalterable but hide the deepest secrets if you know where to look. He got a Bachelor’s Degree in Film & TV at Córdoba National University and a Writing for Film, TV & Games degree at Vancouver Film School where he went after winning the FIC Monterrey Scholarship. The uninvited, his first comedy feature film as co-writer and director was the winner of First Feature Film National Competition (2019) of the National Film and Audiovisual Arts Institute (INCAA), an award that provides the financing to produce the film. The film also won the "Audience Award for Best Film" at the 12th edition of the Cosquín International Independent Film Festival. The kid in the box, the new thriller he is currently working on, was winner of the Creative Grant 2021 and the Project Culmination Grant 2022, both given by the Nacional Arts Fund from Argentina. The script was also recognized with the Fenner Cup as the Best Feature Script at VFS.
