Biography
Ferran Romeu Sunyer is a Barcelona-based documentary filmmaker. He studied Cinema at ESCAC, specializing in documentary filmmaking, and later studied film editing at the Met Film School in London. His first short film, Historias de la Rabassada (2015), won Best Film in the Premiers Pas section at Visions du Réel.
His work is drawn to dreamers, outsiders, and spaces where reality and imagination overlap. These concerns run through his first feature-length documentary, Science Fiction (2024), produced with the support of Sundance DFP, and extend into Guía Paranormal de la Costa Brava (2026), in which he accompanies writer Mariana Enriquez in her search for ghosts and paranormal activity along the Catalan coast, examining how ghosts are imagined, constructed, and perpetuated.
His films have screened at international festivals such as Visions du Réel, DocsBarcelona, BAFICI, MakeDox, Bucharest International Documentary Film Festival, San Francisco Documentary Film Festival, and many others. He has taught documentary and film editing at ESCAC and Elisava.
