As if swallowed by earth

Natalia León was born in Mexico City in 1997. She left Mexico at the age of 17 to pursue her studies at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, where she specialized in animation. Passionate about writing and storytelling, she decided to complete her training at the School of Visual Arts in New York, where she primarily studied screenwriting and directing actors. In 2021, during her final year at ENSAD, she wrote and developed the project Como si la tierra se las hubiera tragado, her first animated short film, produced by Xbo Films, which is set to be released in 2025.
