Amour T4T
Monsieur Le Butch
Jude wants top surgery, Mom wants an “old lady pass” on the whole pronouns thing. As the two butt heads about gender, language, and body image at Monsieur le Butch’s al fresco salon, they both must navigate the hairiness of being seen.
Trans Boy Remember
At the age of 9, I stopped speaking. It's the year I broke from the inside, raped. I came out as a trans boy years later. I am often afraid of becoming a man who I might confuse for the one who hounded my body. This film is a poem, this film is about growing into the unknown.
I will always be your girl :P
I Will Always Be Your Girl :P is a video-art piece made of archival footage documenting a specific part of the artist’s transition: the six months between the beginning of the legal process to change name and gender in Italy and the day of the court appointment. More than an informative video about transition guidelines in Italy, I almost impulsively assembled fragments of footage I filmed during these months. On a line between doing my testosterone shot, sharing my thoughts and worries about the process, performing gender and car rides - it is within this space that I place the legal recognition of my own gender and name from the Italian state.
PIRATES
Drawing inspiration from Kathy Acker's novel "Pussy, King of the Pirates" and her cut-up methodology, this film embarks on an exploration of the interconnectedness between the bodily realm and the realm of celluloid. By employing surgical cuts as a metaphorical device, the film establishes a striking analogy between the incisions made on the skin and the sutures that bind the film through the art of editing. It presents a captivating portrait of three subjects whose dissident bodies transcend the confines of the gender binary. Using a Super 8 camera, the film captures details of the subjects, focusing on their skin, tattoos, and scars. These visible traces become a testament to their personal histories, akin to the tangible memories etched onto the surface of celluloid.
