Gerardo Herraro is among Spain's top film producers; he also occasionally directs and writes screenplays for feature films. His first production credit was Guantanamera (1995), a bouncy, Cuba-set comedy about a family who must journey across the island to bury their recently deceased aunt in her home town. He made his directorial debut with the post-Franco-set melodrama Malena Es un Nombre de Tango/Malena Is a Name From a Tango (1996). His film Territorio Comanche/Comanche Territory (1997) is a gripping story of three war correspondents who come together in Sarajevo and risk their lives to report upon the horrors of the Bosnian conflict.
