Writer & Director
Hi :D
I´m Ique.
Right now, I´m most focused on being a writer and director, working on poetic, character-driven cinema.
I just finished my first feature film and am now diving into my second.
I’ve worn pretty much every hat on set, and I love making surreal, heartfelt stories that feel honest and human, but most of what I do comes from curiosity, patience, and a lot of love for telling stories.

Atlas Workshop 2025 - Lost Sketchbook
I lost my sketchbook at the Atlas Workshop in the Marrakech International Film Festival 2025, and that sucks big time! I still haven’t recovered from that, but this is one of my favourite moments that I sketched. A Creative lab with the brilliant Hiam Abbass
Atlas Workshop 2025 - Pitching
It was the first time Sousa and I stood side by side to pitch Chapa 100. We were both shaking a little, pretending we weren’t. But once the nerves softened, something beautiful opened up, a room full of kindness, community, and filmmakers who genuinely wanted each other to do well. It meant a lot more to me than I expected.
Atlas Workshop 2025 - Awards & Closing
Blessed to be surprised with such support in the development of our film Chapa 100.
When they called my name:
“Knees were weak, arms were heavy.”
INT. CAFE ROURE - DAY
The smell of coffee is omnipresent.
Her only drug of choice.
To awaken and rise like her voluminous hair.
Fierce & wild.
Her lion´s mane.
