The Show That Was Never Published
Back in 2021, LA-born TV and podcast writer, director, and producer Erick Galindo and I worked together making podcasts and coming up with different ideas. We made pitches and pilots — some of them saw the light of day, others did not. Today, I’m sharing an idea for a show that was never published. “Close to the Sun” a show about real places and people in a magical city told in a magical way. Narrated by Erick Galindo.
