Rocío Jadue - Producer of Sundance Films ETERNAL MEMORY and SORCERY

At this year's ☀️ Sundance festival ☀️, I met a wide array of talented people. Among them is Rocío Jadue, a Chilean producer that runs the Latin-American film division at Fabula. She is best known for the film A Fantastic Woman (2018), directed by Sebastián Lelio, which won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. 🎞 Special shoutout to Maylen Calienes, founder of Latino Filmmakers Network for graciously hosting AOP at her Sundance case. Gracias amiga! Rocío's career at Fabula dates back to 2012 when she executive produced Pablo Larraín's No, the first Chilean film nominated for the Academy Awards. She has now worked on 20 films, such as Neruda and The Club, that have premiered in festivals like Cannes, Berlin, Venice, and Sundance. Rocío had two incredible films premiering at this year's festival; Eternal Memory, winner of the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize: Documentary directed by @MaiteAlberdi and director @ChristopherMurray's dark and decolonial coming-of-age tale, Sorcery. Gems from this episode include: -Rocío's luck in landing her first big project, Pablo Larraín's "No," which was nominated for an Academy Award -Coming up in Chile's limited film industry -Reclaiming what it means to be a producer
