Federico Peña

Federico Peña’s name keeps popping up for a reason. The guy’s been making waves in the film world, especially if you’ve caught “Mensaje en una botella” (2025) on your radar. That film? Pure intrigue, wrapped up in a bottle—literally and metaphorically. Peña isn’t just some one-hit wonder, though. Back in 2018, he was all over “27: El club de los malditos.” That one’s got a little cult following, thanks to its wild mix of dark humor, mystery, and a dash of existential dread. Not exactly your average popcorn flick, but that’s kind of the point. And then there’s “Bruno Motoneta” from the same year, which couldn’t be more different. Peña switches gears, giving us this offbeat, quirky tale about a scooter-riding oddball named Bruno. There’s heart, there’s laughs, and honestly, a whole lot of charm you wouldn’t expect. What’s cool about Federico Peña is he doesn’t just stick to one lane—his work bounces between genres like a pinball. You get emotional depth in one project, razor-sharp satire in another, and then a burst of whimsical energy when you least expect it. At this point, if Peña’s attached to a film, you know you’re in for something a little different, a little risky, and way more interesting than your standard flick. Keep an eye out—he’s just getting started.
