Julio Rojas is a dentist by trade, which may be hard to believe given that he has devoted over two decades of his life to screenplays and writing. He has worked as a professor at major universities and film schools like the EICTV in Cuba, where he's been teaching the advanced screenwriting course for fifteen years. Julio has also worked as a fiction content director for free-to-air TV channels and audiovisual producers.

His most prominent work includes feature films like Sábado(Rainer Werner Fassbinder Award), La vida de los peces (2012 Goya winner), and La memoria del agua (selected for Venice Days at the 2016 Venice Film Festival). In addition to screenplays, Julio just published his first novel, a historical crime thriller titled El visitante extranjero (The Foreign Visitor), through Penguin Random House.

His Spotify podcast series CASO 32, listed by The New York Times as one of the best audio fictions of 2020, has been remade in various languages as well as categorized as the most-listened-to Spanish-language audio fiction in the world.
