Director(s) Bio:: Danilo Herrera Fonseca was born and raised in Cerrado, the Brazilian savanna.

After high school, he moved to Rio de Janeiro and decided to pursue a diplomat career at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. A year later, everything changed when he was admitted to a program by Fundação Estudar, a foundation that supports a very select group of young leaders from all over Brazil to apply to colleges in the US. He enrolled in Middlebury College where he deepened his studies in directing, a path he grew to love and admire, graduating with a full ride and Distinction in Visual Arts.
