Omar Cunha |
Portugal |
|
Omar Cunha was born in Horta, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. During his childhood and teen years his best friends were movies and books. He didn’t complete degrees in History at the University of Lisbon, and Photography and Film at Edinburgh’s Napier University. He was an editor of Os Fazedores de Letras, has sold movies, records, books, sandwiches and coffees, and was a cameraman and sound technician on the documentary Unheard Voices: Encounters with Albanians in Great Britain. These days his favourite quote is “"any description suitable for human minds to grasp must be some type of lie-to-children — real reality is always much too complicated for our limited minds."
