Henrique Mesquita Montes

Born 1996-09-06 · Porto, Portugal

Henrique Mesquita Montes (born 6 September 1996) is a portuguese director. Since he was a little boy he dreams of knowing and understanding the world we live in. Through stories, he captures the essence of what being human is and defies perspectives with his vision. Throughout his life, Henrique has both belonged to the sea as to land. He has travelled the world by sea as much as enjoyed the the calm and comforts of his home. His life gains its meaning through the art that molds us, that fills our souls, by paper or film, and shows us what's it like to feel.
