THIS IS A STORY THAT WILL ABSOLUTELY OPEN YOUR EYES AND EMPOWER. It certainly did for me.
Alex Budin, was born in Crimea, Ukraine.
Not only was Alex oppressed by different political regimes growing up, but he was a prisoner of his own body..
Alex landed in the United States of America seeking an asylum to avoid being persecuted in his homeland for being gay and trans.
The ultimate goal was to find a safe space to create and live his life as his authentic self which has brought him to Los Angeles where he is currently pursuing his acting career. As a transgender he has had to play a “role” for the most part of his life to fit into society.
These life changing experiences have not only allowed him to grow as an individual but gives him the opportunity to tap into the deep emotional pockets in his creative endeavors whether it’s acting, photography or being an inspiration for others.
The importance of LISTENING.

I had the pleasure of working with Ciro on the Oscar-Nominated film EMBRACE OF THE SERPENT back in 2014. The film exploded onto the international scene back in 2016 -2017. Winning the CANNES film Festival Directors Fortnight, the SLOAN Award at SUNDANCE IFF, and finally reaching the Academy Awards for best foreign-language film.
Embrace of the Serpent is the story of a relationship between Karamakate, an Amazonian shaman (Antonio Bolivar/ Nilbio Torres), and two scientists Richard Evans Schultes (Brionne Davis, and Jan Bijvoet) who work together over the course of forty years to search the Amazon for a sacred healing plant. The Human spirit is tried and tested as cultures collide then attempt to become whole again.
One of Karamakate's commands to Evan was " It is your dream, you must follow it." And at that moment the virtuous path would be chosen. Letting ourselves free from the burden of material things, metaphorical baggage, and restraints of linear perspective becomes the message.
We dive deeper into this philosophy in this Episode.
