Federico Stöltzing is the author of La Privación del Ser (2024) and Que Salga Sanito (2025), two works that, from very different perspectives, explore the boundaries between identity, memory, and transformation.
His writing blends philosophical depth with poetic precision and a visual sensibility shaped by more than two decades of experience in storytelling and creative direction.
In 2025, he wrote the documentary Hollywood Did It (Hollywood lo Hizo), a lucid and thought-provoking exploration of how artificial intelligence is reshaping the creative industries and redefining the role of the author in the algorithmic age.
Stöltzing currently divides his time between writing and leading his creative boutique, collaborating with brands and agencies around the world. His work reflects a constant search for human meaning amid technological and cultural transformation, positioning him as one of the most distinctive and forward-thinking voices in today’s creative landscape.
La privación del ser
Francisco Garraf, one of the most powerful businessmen in the world, disappears under disturbing circumstances.
A few days later, the family receives the first call from the kidnappers—triggering a furious sequence of lies, betrayals, and unexpected revelations that drag everyone involved to the very limits of human reason.
The police are disoriented.
The family suffers the anguish of disappearance.
Where is Garraf? No one knows.
Not even the kidnappers.
With remarkable narrative skill and sharp precision in depicting the psychological complexity of his characters, Federico Stöltzing has crafted a story about the brutal search for identity—the total and complete abandonment of the comfort of the preordained—in order to explore the most irrational boundaries of life itself.

Que salga sanito
Federico Stöltzing immerses us in a universe of short stories where fantasy, dark humor, and existential reflection intertwine to bring to life characters and situations as strange as they are familiar.
From a girl who succumbs to the poison of a magical flower to a man lost in his dream world, each story explores the absurd and the sublime aspects of the human condition. With a blend of irony and melancholy, Stöltzing delves into themes such as love, time, death, and memory, while playfully shifting the boundaries between reality and imagination.
Que salga sanito is a book meant to awaken the disturbed child we all carry within—the one unafraid to face the dark corners of the mind and who finds beauty in the unusual.
