Biography
Alba Sotorra (b. 1980, Barcelona) lives in Berlin where she focuses on film direction and video art. Her work treats common social topics such as the position of women in Muslim society, motherhood, popular culture, capitalism, warmongering, and climate change. She finds those aspects that create a certain amount of controversy, seeking to reflect on them from a gender perspective. With the help of her writer-director documentaries, audiovisual installations, and works distributed online, she attempts to open up an arena for viewing the world as a place in which society continuously confronts unexpected changes. She has directed the medium-length movies Unveiled Views (Miradas desveladas, 2008) and Qatar: The Race (2011); Game Over is her feature-length documentary debut. At present Sotorra is working on The Earth Masters, which investigates the field of climate engineering.
