Santiago Carrión-Arcos is an Ecuadorian activist and filmmaker, interested in exploring topics of resistance, imagination and the future. His political motivations led him to create an NGO dedicated to investigative journalism, which together with top journalists brought to light hundreds of cases of corruption and human rights abuses in Europe and Latin America. In parallel to directing the project, he cultivated his passion for photography and using film to amplify real life stories. THE BLEEDING EDGE is a cyberpunk documentary, born from research for his MA thesis in Visual And Media Anthropology at Freie Universität Berlin, and marks his debut as a director.
