Alejandro Lopez Rodas

A little bit about me — my name is Landro. I’m a filmmaker based in Miami, Florida, and I’ve been doing this for about four years now. I’m originally from Guatemala and moved to the U.S. in 2019.

Storytelling has always been my passion. Ever since I was a kid, I used to make up stories for my friends — basically, I was lying, but that’s when I realized I was actually good at making things up. Since then, I knew this was something I wanted to do for the rest of my life.

Filmmaking makes me happy — it can definitely be stressful at times, but that’s just part of it. And honestly, I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
