78 Days

It’s 1999 and NATO has invested against Serbia during the Kosovo War. But the protagonists are teenagers who deal with the threat of bombs by creating their own diary through home videos, concentrating on the things that make them still innocent, putting off the hardships of the world: mysterious boys, first kisses and intimate disappointments that mean they’re growing up too, whatever happens out there.

As If It Could

When a plant isn’t growing well, you have to try to move it to a different location so that it gets more sun. This metaphor is the basis for an animation about the concept of borders and integration and what is needed for successful re-planting.

Bolero

At first, the story seems to have an if not predictable, at least classic vein, in which someone who doesn’t fit in where they used to live now has to spend time there. However, some sketches of confrontation are diluted in what becomes a literal dance of increasing hypnotic force that captures everyone’s attention, impulses, and feelings.

Butterfly

We take the idea of a butterfly that flaps its wings and everything changes, and that’s exactly what happens in this painting-turned-cinema. A butterfly arrives and upsets all the daily harmony of these beings who live around a fountain in a garden.

Diamond Himalaya

A fascinating dive into a particular niche of the Internet that revolves around luxury items, in particular the Birkin bag, which the Hermès brand makes a difficult item to acquire due to its exorbitant price that discourages its purchase. Thus the desire for consumerism is generated.

Look On the Bright Side

It’s a journey that’s made through the commanding editing work of a director with a master’s hand. Here, the journey takes us from the ore that is used in the component parts of our technology to what the technology itself then provides us with, in all its splendour of light.

Love, Your Neighbour

Amid the pandemic, we visited the neighbours of a community full of gates where the only way to meet is through closed gates, intercoms or a WhatsApp group. A cheeky look at what makes us afraid of the other.
