Having made his mark in the film industry with latin centric music videos and commercials, director Pablo Croce is moving into the realm of feature length films, including his documentary of UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva entitled Like Water.

There’s a good look at what can be driving his persona, to be perceived somehow differently or stereotyped..." Follow the link for the rest of the article on BleacherReport.
