Silvestre approaches art practice from the analysis of everyday experiences. His films tend to be preceded by a process of close collaboration with specific communities where the gender perspective is transversally implemented and the empowerment of the participants is fostered.
His first feature film, The Objects of Love (2016), has received numerous international awards, such as FIPRESCI (SEFF).
Sediments (Sedimentos, 2021), his second feature film, won the Feroz Award for best national nonfiction film, presented at BFI London FF, San Sebastian FF, Thessaloniki Documentary FF (Special Jury Prize), Malaga Film Festival, Gottembourg FF, Cinespaña Toulouse (Best Documentary), Outfest Los Angeles (Grand Jury Special Mention), and Newfest NY, among others.
After its world premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, My Emptiness and I (Mi vacío y yo, 2022) won the Silver Biznaga, Special Jury Prize at the Malaga Film Festival, and Premio Maguey / Best Film at the Guadalajara International Film Festival, among other prizes.
