About

Since finishing her film studies in London, UK, Arantxa has worked on several international feature films, documentaries and TV series. Born in Spain, raised in Luxembourg and studied in the UK, Arantxa moved to Sweden on a bicycle trip from Spain in 2008, freelancing as a filmmaker and photographer for the next consecutive 13 years. In 2019 she founded the film collective Sprouting Pictures where she has produced, directed, edited several short-films and won awards at an international level. Her main passion is working with actors. Her experience as a camera operator, editor, photographer and even PA, makes her a jack of all trades. Arantxa is currently based in Brussels (Belgium), opening up to the European market.
