Biography.
Scherson studied filmmaking in the Escuela de Cine de Cuba and in 1999 received a Fulbright Scholarship to study for a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Illinois at Chicago.
Scherson's debut film "Play" was awarded Best Director at the 2005 Tribeca Film Festival. "The Times" called "Play" a "doozy of a showreel," but also criticized its "sketchy emotional construction." Scherson's second film, "Tourists", was selected for the 2009 Tiger Awards Competition.
Scherson collaborated with author Alejandro Zambra on "Vida de Familia", a film based on one of his stories. The 80 minute feature was screened at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2017.
