Biography

Emilio Martí (Valencia, 1978) is a filmmaker and art therapist who experiments with animation pursuing social change. Most of his works deal with social issues, such as internalised LGBT-phobia (Unanimated, 2011) or the right to asylum (MARHABA, 2016), made during a workshop with refugee children. In MAKUN (2019) he animates the drawings found on the walls of an Immigrant Detention Center in Spain to denounce the improper detention to which the EU submits people who have committed no crime.  He is currently directing and producing the animated short documentary LITTLE SAHARA, the animated biopic ANETTA  and the animation series Animated Rights.
