We believe in authentic creative collaboration & the power of its outcome.

Cumbia Films is the result of a team that comes together with similar dreams, unique talents and a constant desire to grow. Each challenge has given us the opportunity of collaborating with amazingly talented and beautiful humans who are part of the Cumbia family today.

We like long-term relationships.
