Alí Allié is an independent filmmaker and cinematographer based in Los Angeles.  He got into film at age 12 using an 8mm film camera to do stop motion animations with clay and action figures.  Later, he attended film school at California Institute of the Arts and made two Spanish-language short films (“Mi Piñata” and “Agua en La Villa”) which screened at a variety of international film festivals.  After spending time in Honduras working in an orphanage, Alí returned to make a film there, “El Espíritu de mi Mamá”, which showed at over 40 international film festivals and was released on DVD by Vanguard Cinema.

Alí is currently shooting 3 features simultaneously, inspired by the approach and methodology of frequent collaborator Alejandro Adams.
