Panama Indie-Film Gold | GREED (2013)

Colorful, captivating GREED.

dir. Maria Isabel Burnes

Shot in New York, GREED is a 2:46 short directed by Panamanian-born Maria Isabel Burnes, one of the vanguard of up-and-comers in the fast-expanding indie-film scene just now taking off in the Republic of Panama.  

Burnes' 2nd piece, GREED placed first in the 2013 Honduran COR3 Film Festival in the Central American category while at home she won her category in the Hayah Short Film Festival sponsored by L'Alliance Française for which she'll represent Panama in the upcoming Trés Court International Film Festival.

Her third short SCREWDRIVER, an 80s exploitation film shot in 35mm and 16mm,  is just now in the can and soon to be released.  MI COMANDANTE, Burnes' fourth short done entirely in 35mm and shot on location in Panama has just wrapped production and is slotted for release sometime next year.
