My name is Gustavo Portugal, a film producer, storyteller, and founder of Andes Pictures, a production company dedicated to sharing the vibrant and dynamic narratives of Latin American people on a global stage.
With over 20 years of experience in the film industry, I’ve worked with esteemed production houses including Ruby Films, Vertigo Films, and The Farm, gaining valuable expertise across all aspects of film production—from project development to post-production. My work bridges cultures, blending my Peruvian heritage with my extensive experience in the UK and Europe.
As a producer, I am passionate about crafting authentic, impactful stories that challenge stereotypes and foster greater empathy across communities. Whether it’s managing complex international productions or guiding emerging voices in independent cinema, I thrive on bringing visions to life through meticulous planning and creative problem-solving.
In addition to producing, I specialize as a film fixer for British crews filming in Europe. I provide seamless production support, from securing permits and sourcing local talent to scouting unique filming locations. My intimate knowledge of the European film landscape ensures smooth, efficient shoots for international projects.
When I’m not on set, I’m writing about the power of storytelling, Latin American cinema, and cultural identity. You can read my latest thoughts and insights in the News section of this website.
