Hernán Zin (born 1971) is an Argentine-Italian war correspondent, writer, producer and filmmaker based in Madrid, Spain.[1] Since 1994, he has traveled around the globe directing documentary films, writing books and contributing to news outlets.[2]

He has worked in more than 80 countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe. War, poverty, the environment and human rights are the main subjects of his work.[3][4]

From 1994 to 1998 he was based in Calcutta, India, where he created homes for street children and produced his first documentary "Calcuta, vida en la estación de la muerte". The second part of the documentary was presented by Penelope Cruz and the music score was composed by Alejandro Sanz.[citation needed]

Five of his documentary films have been premiered by Netflix worldwide.[5] And the rest of his films and series were released by HBO, Amazon Prime Video, National Geographic, Canal Plus and dozens of TV stations around the world.

This blog took him to DR Congo, Somalia, Afghanistan, Gaza, Lebanon, Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Brazil, Kenya and Bosnia and Herzegovina.[9] Its aim was to give voice to the victims of war.
