Pablos directed "20 y Más por el Arte", a TV series created to celebrate Canal 22's 20th Anniversary in 2013. The series followed 20 FONCA beneficiaries through their daily life and creative processes. In 2014, the film "Las Tinieblas", co-written by Pablos and director Daniel Castro Zimbrón, was shown included on the Cinéfondation official selection during the 2014 Cannes Film Festival. Later that year, after an exhaustive casting process, Pablos filmed "Las Elegidas" in Tijuana with non-professional actors. The film was originally based on a book written by Mexican novelist Jorge Volpi from which Pablos developed a screenplay that features a love story that evolves in a complaint about kidnapping, white slave traffic and prostitution, with a "documentary tone". "Las Elegidas" competed at the Un Certain Regard section of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival and later premiered at the Morelia International Film Festival. "Sight &amp; Sound" magazine ranked the film at number 118 of their list for the Best Films of 2015. In 2016, "Las Elegidas" received 13 nominations for the 58th Ariel Awards and won five awards, including Best Picture, and Best Director and Best Original Screenplay for Pablos. The film opened theatrically in Mexico on 14 theaters, which according to Pablos was "poor", and a week later was streamed internationally by Netflix. Thanks to this distribution deal, Pablos was contacted by British band White Lies to hire him to direct a music video for the track "Take It Out On Me", the lead single of their album "Friends" (2016), after Harry McVeigh, lead singer of the band, watched "Las Elegidas". Pablos directed the masterpiece Dance of the 41 and is said to be currently working on the film adaptation of the novel "Los Detectives Salvajes" written by Chilean author Roberto Bolaño.
