Director and actress Elena Martín Gimeno, winner of the Málaga Talent Award at the 28th Málaga Film Festival
The competition recognises the young filmmaker with this award, in collaboration with La Opinión de Málaga, with which it rewards professionals with promising film careers

The Malaga Film Festival will award the Málaga Talent Award to director Elena Martín Gimeno at its 28th edition (which takes place from the 14th to the 23rd of March). The Festival awards this prize, which is given in collaboration with La Opinión de Málaga, to professionals with a promising film career, as is the case with this filmmaker.
 
Elena Martín Gimeno (Barcelona, ​​1992) is an actress, screenwriter and film director. She made her acting debut starring in Las amigas de Ágata (by Laia Alabart, Marta Verheyen, Laura Rius Arán, Alba Cros), a generational portrayal that was very well received by critics. She later starred in her first feature film as a director, Júlia Ist, for which she received the Silver Biznagas for Best Film and Best Director in the Zonacine section of the Málaga Film Festival. She also co-starred in the short film Suc de síndria (Irene Moray), which received the Goya Award and the Gaudí Award for Best Short Fiction Film and earned Elena Martín Gimeno the Best Actress Award in the short film section of the 22nd Málaga Film Festival, among other awards.
 
She participated in the feature films Con el viento (Meritxell Colell), No nos mataremos con pistolas (María Ripoll) and Unicornios (Álex Lora), to name a few.
 
Her most recent work is Creatura (in which she is an actress, co-writer and director), a film that addresses the awakening of sexuality and desire from childhood and its evolution into adulthood. With this work she received the Award for Best European Film at the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight, six Gaudí Awards and three nominations for the Goya Awards, among others.
 
As a director and screenwriter, apart from her two feature films Júlia Ist and Creatura, she has worked on fiction projects such as Vida Perfecta by Leticia Dolera, Veneno by Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi and En casa, the HBO anthology series.
On the other hand, she maintains a very active relationship with theatre. She is co-founder of the experimental stage laboratory Els malnascuts at the Sala Beckett (Barcelona) and the artistic collective VVAA, through which she has participated in several theatre works.
