Early life
As a teenager born in Mexico City, Zabé would go to local-second run theaters where they would run a different film every day.[4] His father was a photographer so Zabé grew up around images and cameras. He believes his love for photography is "genetic" and that his incline towards cinematography is very natural. This natural love for photography and cinema led him to attend the Centro Universitario de Estudios Cinematográficos.[5] While studying he met future director Fernando Eimbcke and the two became friends, having shot different short films together. After graduating, Zabé realized that Mexico's cinematic industry panorama was not promising since the country was going through a severe economic crisis that had an impact on the almost zero production of films in those years.[6] Because of this, Zabé and the people of his same generation took refuge in other audiovisual aspects such as video clips, commercials and TV programs.[7]
