Ana Vico was born in Huelma, a small town in Andalucía (Spain). At 18, she moved to Madrid to study Audiovisual Communication at the Complutense University. Very interested in intimate cinema, she shot a couple of short films of this style with her group of friends from college, both with a very limited budget. After finishing her degree, she began the Directing Diploma at ECAM to continue learning and developing her films. “Un amor” is her Diploma Graduation short film, which was selected at this festival, Imagine India International Film Festival.

After finishing Film School, she began working on directing and editing documentaries with archival images, showing what rural life was like in many towns in Spain from the 80s to the 2000s. She continues at it and, at the same time is in charge of the script and direction of a documentary about how certain people in a town in Jaén (Andalusia) experience a traditional festival there, scheduled to film in April 2025. Likewise, she participates in the Imagine India festival as jury in the international short films section.
