Montiel is a filmmaker born in Madrid and based in Barcelona, where she owns her own production company. She has been Erika`s collaborator for a while now, producing a bunch of her short films before directing a few stories herself. As a producer, she spends her days at the office working mostly on advertising, whilst developing some long-shot film projects. Montiel has become her beloved playground, where she can explore the topics that interest her the most: fetishes, obsessions and the psychological mechanisms of desire.
