BEHIND THE SCENES: Peruvian Director Adrian Saba on the Making of 'El Sonador (The Dreamer)'

Back in 2012, Peruvian filmmaker Adrian Saba put together a small independent film called "El Limpiador (The Cleaner)." The film, set in post-apocalyptic Lima, not only made the rounds at prominent international film festivals but became a huge hit in his home country and was selected by the nation's film commission as its official submission for that year's Academy Awards' category for Best Foreign Language film. "El Limpiador" never made the cut at the Oscars, but the film's success launched Saba's career and made him well-known in his country. Almost three years since the success of "Limpiador" the filmmaker is at it again with his second feature titled "El Sonador (The Dreamer)." The film is set across a wider range of Peruvian locations including prominent sequences in the desert and ocean. Saba is currently in New York working on the film with editor Justin Beach and spent some time talking with Latin Post about the grueling process that has been the making of "El Sonador" and how it differed from his first feature film.
