Los Angeles, CA (September 17th, 2024) – Rubio, the artistic experiment of renowned Chilean artist, multi-instrumentalist and producer part of FAMA Collective, Francisca Straube, receives first Latin GRAMMY nomination for Best Long Form Music Video with “Nacimos Llorando”.
The musical short film, directed by Fernando Cattori, featuring two original songs taken from her album Venus & Blue, “Llorar” and “Kintsugi“, weaving these tracks into two interconnected narratives. The short is a fascinating fusion of music, visual storytelling and offers a distinctive and emotionally resonant artistic experience.
When speaking of the nomination, Rubio shared “I am very excited to know that this video, with such a profound message, has been nominated by the academy. The video conveys a beautiful and important message, and I hope that it will now reach a wider audience.”
Since it’s release last year, the short film has gone on to win Best Long Form Short Film at several film festivals including the Experimental Dance & Music Film Festival, LGBTQ+ LA Film Festival, Pride Film Fest 2023, and was selected for the San Diego Latino Film Festival and Philadelphia Latino Arts and Film Festival, at which she performed a musical set.
