LATEST STORIES

From non-fiction to fiction, from film to audio, Cuentero tells stories in the great tradition of storytelling that captivates audiences due to the way we tell those stories. Through experimentation, interdisciplinary approaches, and letting each story have its own form.


our most recent STORIES

We move through our work inspired by the love we have for telling stories as they want to be told. We are not looking for a one-mold-fits-all model of storytelling. We design our stories with the narratives and discourses that they embody in mind. We love learning about the worlds we focus on during our multimedia work. We are deeply collaborative and value a co-creation that trusts the process and is changed by the act of telling the stories we tell.
