Synopsis

Andrés Figueredo is a Venezuelan-American producer working between Caracas and the U.S., with a degree in Political Economy and Film Studies from Georgetown University. He produced his first narrative feature, LOST SOULZ, in Austin, and wrote and directed LA CAUSA, a documentary filmed over a decade inside the Venezuelan prison system. His producing work includes the Goya-nominated DIRECCIÓN OPUESTA, and his most recent production, DEATH HAS NO MASTER, premiered in the Directors’ Fortnight at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival, marking a rare Venezuelan return to the festival. Beyond film, he founded the record label Habeatat and the nonprofit Free Convict, through which he built recording studios inside Venezuelan prisons.
