Nase Lino Sumpinanch Tiriats (Wampuik, Ecuador, February 14, 2000) is an Ecuadorian filmmaker and communicator of the Achuar ethnicity, recognized for his work in promoting and preserving Amazonian culture through documentary cinema. He is also the founder of cultural and creative projects aimed at documenting the traditions and environment of his community.

Early life

He was born in the community of Wampuik, in the Huasaga parish, Taisha canton, Morona Santiago province. At the age of three, he moved with his family to Puyo, in the Pastaza province, due to his parents' work, where he lived until he was 16. Later, he relocated to Riobamba, in the Chimborazo province.

During his childhood, Nase experienced a family dynamic influenced by his father’s cultural tradition, which included practicing Achuar polygamy, shaping his perception of family life. A significant moment in his life was the death of his grandmother when he was 11 and the loss of photographs of her, leading him to value the visual preservation of memories. This event influenced his later interest in documenting his community and cultural environment.

Education and career

He studied Communication at the State University of Milagro (UNEMI), in the Guayas province, where he also participated in initiatives like Ruta Mochilera, a program dedicated to exploring and promoting Ecuador's cultural and natural treasures. Although his filmmaking training is self-taught, he began creating travel video blogs at 16, experimenting with different film formats.

Among his influences are filmmakers such as Clavero and Nainoa Langer, who shaped his visual and narrative approach. His early projects included music videos and documentaries related to his travels and community, such as:
