Ugo Ulive

Ugo Ulive was born in 1933 in Montevideo. A radio actor from an early age, he entered independent theatre, at El Galpón, as an actor and then a director, and at the same time made short films and a feature film, now lost. In 1961 he left for Havana, where he directed for the theatre, and Cuban filmmakers proposed that he join their institute. Back in Montevideo, he co-directed a documentary in 1967, joined the Third World Cinematheque in 1969 and went into exile after the 1973 coup d'état; he later took Venezuelan nationality.
