Faux fluides
Faux fluides is a eclectic story of the quest for one's identity. Through a collage of texts by Antonin Artaud and Samuel Beckett, this video cynically pursues and dismantles the Freudian theory of self. "There is a reserve of fluids somewhere in me which releases false liquids, believing to have modelled for me an eternal, internal body. It is, however, non-fluid beings who have assembled them, in order to dip into them."

My Body, My Rules
Far from the dictates of current female beauty, MBMR focuses on these other bodies, those who take up space, those that stain, biters, those who devour, those who enjoy as they wish, those age and those who are self-transformed, those who are free and wild. Eight people will reveal the magic,cruel, sensuel, powerful relationship they have with their own bodies.The adventure of the film is multiple: the objective is to give voice and images to women whose body or sexuality is seen as non-standard, unseen or without speaking. The film will highlight possible resistance through an intimate portrait gallery, collective experimentations, tantra, exchange of fluids and knowledge, rituals… A strong political and feminist manifest about body politics, female sexuality and its representation, as well as about diversity and various forms of sexual desire.

Deux corps
A short fil that follows a body subjected to institutional and diffuse forms of power: medicalization, psychiatric labeling, regimes of sexuality, and everyday violence. Moving between a white clinical space, a cemetery in Toulouse, and ordinary interiors, the film unfolds through gestures, textures, and encounters with other bodies. Inspired by Michel Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, Artaud, Rancière, and critical thought from Latin America, this short film traces a sensitive cartography of emancipation and asks a simple yet difficult question: what can a body do when it attempts to reclaim its own history?
