Covering the most interesting stories on travel, music, film, food, books, people and more, with a cult following since 1999, LatinEyes is the most original TV show in the U.S. about authentic Latino life.
LatinEyes was first developed in 1999 by Creator and Executive Producer Andres Pruna. As a producer and documentary filmmaker, and a graduate of Brooks Film Institute, Pruna wanted to work on a TV show that showcased the reality of who Latinos really are.

With a childhood strongly influenced by the Amazon jungle and Patagonia -
Pruna scouts a new location.where he filmed with his father, a National Geographic documentary filmmaker - and a life lived variously in Venezuela, Argentina, and the East and West of the U.S., Pruna has a strong background in world culture, adventure travel, ostriches ("they bit the crap out of me") and wildlife ("that includes Hollywood executives").
He is a respected TV professional and an independent, creative talent with a truly original perspective.
Through his work on LatinEyes as the creator of a unique TV show, fulfilling a desire to cover Latino people and culture from a more sophisticated, intelligent angle, Pruna has became an Emmy Award-winning producer and has assembled a team of top-notch talent to express his vision of pan-Latino culture.
