Helena Taberna began as a filmmaker in the 90's writing, directing and producing numerous short films, both fiction and documentary. Her debut feature film, Yoyes, about the Basque conflict and starring Ana Torrent, was released in 2000 to critical acclaim, awards and box office success. Helena has subsequently released the feature films Extranjeras (2003) whose background deals with the phenomenon of emigration, La buena nueva (2008), about historical memory and the civil war, Nagore (2010), which proposes a reflection on gender violence, and Acantilado (2016), which delves into the universe of sects. His filmography has enjoyed the support of the public and critics, having won numerous international awards. The themes chosen as a backdrop for his films strike and move, generating the complicity of the viewer, which has led to his films being regularly screened on television and social forums around the world. In the fall of 2019 he plans the theatrical release of his latest feature, Varados, a film shot in Greece with real characters.
