Pablo Larcuen

At the age of five, Pablo Larcuen saw ET in his house. From that moment on he decided that what he wanted was to dedicate himself to cinema (although he was completely ignorant of how a film was made). During the summer of 1998, after an excursion through the mountains with two friends, he saw a type of “UFO”. After this experience he decided to carry a camera with him for the rest of his life, until at the age of 19 he entered the ESCAC, currently in his last year of his degree.

My invisible friend has a script by Larguen himself, production by Andrea Puig and photography by Albert Murillo. The assembly is the work of Antonio Gómez-Pan while Víctor Santacana has been in charge of the artistic direction. With sound by Pablo Larcuen, the music has been composed by Zacarías Martínez de la Riva.
