About Elias
Elias Benavidez hails from Mesa, Arizona, otherwise known as America’s “hot flash”. The youngest son in a Mexican-American family, he retreated from the crushing sameness of early-90’s mediocrity and escaped into classic cinema probably too inappropriate for a 13-year-old (Read: CHINATOWN and FARGO). Inspired by these innovative storytellers, he attended the University of Arizona to study filmmaking and has been working in film/television for the last 10 years.
