Director
They say that when he first opened his eyes the World fell in love with him. That he started speaking when he was 9 months old and he started walking when he was 10 months old to tell stories to his neighbors. No snake would dare to bite him because he has the antidote for the worst ills and they also say that he invented a tale-antidote for the ills of the soul.
Producer
Producer and storyteller, but above all, a good story (and pepper) lover. They assure that he’s crazy, but no one has presented proofs. He has been telling stories ever since he has use of reason and vice versa. According to Navarro, he has never cooked without chili, but no one has proofs of that either.
Legal Representative
Professional Yogi, a word vocation which moved him to organize Puro Cuento’s first edition which was formerly called: «San José La Fiesta del Cuento»
Photographer
Only child, that explains a lot. An aquarium with a free and ungovernable soul. Forgets intentionally to get surprised again. Extremely curious and direct. A detail photographer that looks for stories to be moved by. Her soul gets overwhelmed by poetry. With her extravagances she had a lot of stories to tell so she decided to give storytelling a shot. She has drama running through her veins, her mother says. So, she took advantage of it.
Graphic Designer
I don’t only design, but I also transfer feelings and sensations. I love animals and there’s room in my heart for all creatures on Earth. Tell me what you feel, sometimes I’m also a soul doctor, because there must always be someone out there who listens without judging. Thank you for existing, you might be someone’s inspiration at some time.
“Se Escuchan Historias de Amor” Director
A bunch of opposite feelings that seems like it has been wrapped strongly by someone with an iridescent ribbon. Willing to help with whatever is needed even though she looks like a headless chicken. In love with stories that aren’t hers and making eye contact. Tons of energy, tons of poetry and laughing out loud. She would teach for free her whole life. Sleeping is her platonic love.
Presenter
Woman, black, Costa Rican, from southern San José, in her fifties, mother, wife, grandmother and incredible in scene. Pure talent.
Presenter
She hasn’t discovered yet in what she’s good at, she describes herself as “the nosy one” because she involves herself in everything. She arrived as stray cat one night when she realized that there are other ways in which art can enlarge your heart.
Presenter
She fell in love like someone who falls in love with love, she fell in love with coffee just like she fell in love with poetry. A woman that doesn’t believe in fiction but she does believe in enough to think that poetry is the sincerest tool to describe our world and people. She has been called an extremist by plenty, but she’s just a feminist, and for some reason every single time she gets called like that she hears a chorus that tells her: patriarchy will fall down!
