Los Bandidos is a filmmaking team based in NYC. Known for their individual award-winning short films, they decided to team up to create cinematic stories. Alexandra grew up in Paris and worked in post-production for over 10 years. Karim is from Egypt and comes from an intensive background in production. They complement each other on set by bringing 10 years of experience in execution and post-production. Together they shot a visually stunning spec commercial for New Balance and collaborated on a short film entirely shot in Tokyo (Motomiya). They are currently developing several feature films.
After graduation from Paris VIII with a B.A. in Film & Television, Alexandra Debricon moved to New York to do an intensive film production workshop at NYU. She briefly worked in Toronto as an assistant director on a feature film & commercials. Shortly after returning to NYC, Alexandra began her career in editing. She worked as an editor for many years for clients like NFL, Siemens, Saturday Night Live, GE and Nike. The short she edited Close Your Eyes premiered at The Tribeca Film Festival, Los Angeles Film Festival and many others. Her directorial debut A Gringo Honeymoon starring Raymond Cruz (Breaking Bad) won many awards and nominations (Hollyshorts, Aesthetica, Madrid and Queens Film Festivals).
Karim graduated with a BA in Cinema Production. He started working as an assistant producer on commercials, eventually rising to become an assistant director on feature films and high-end TV commercials (Vodafone, Orange, 7up and many more).
