The Motion
This experimental short film explores the reconstruction and recollection of traumatic events through fragmented memories, using a non-linear narrative and a layered visual approach. The film emphasizes the penetration of montage, with an anarchic and chaotic tone that reflects both fun and disorder. The film brings to life concerns about how a woman moves, how she speaks, dreams, and how she is stripped of her inherent qualities by a society which continues to sexualize and harmfully perceive her. It visualizes a recollection of thoughts, dreams and memories, symbolically intertwining the characters experiences of their conscious with their subconscious.
Amor
Landscapes revealed themselves through text, paper through movement, while the sun gave them relief. This is a journey across found words, enunciating a discovery, their textures constructing the sea and the waves, in a travelogue from the first exploration, the first step over the sand towards the shore. “Amor” writes this joy to underline it in its time, captured on paper. This film has been composed through a scanner, and it’s the first chapter of the “Reír al Sol” series.
My Body Feels with Me
My Body Feels with Me is a fragmented crip contemplation that emerged from two months of workshops with six women in Hyderabad, India. Together they explored how childhood violence lives in the body: across caste, class, gender, and disability. Rejecting trauma as spectacle or damage, the film transforms personal memory into a collective visual archive. Shot on a mobile phone, shaped by crip time, it asks how cinema might witness pain with care.
