Muriendo

[ 25:14 ]
It is said that dancing is the vertical expression of a horizontal desire -- and which dance could be better suited than tango to express a myriad of emotions like confusion, happiness, anger, love, or resignation? Inspired by Piazzolla’s Maria de Buenos Aires, a young woman dies in the streets. When she awakes, she believes that she escaped a bad dream, but her normal life turns out to be a continuation of her bad dream, until she has to realize that death has entered her life uninvited a long time ago, catching her in a cycle only she can end.

Les Facettes
The short film Les Facettes materializes an idea in the space between realism and surrealism. In a film noir style, the central theme of forgiving is darkly and emotionally coming to live on screen. Rose, a modern, 24-year-old woman, is being pushed out of a car on the road next to a mysterious park in the middle of the night. Fleeing, she experiences surreal nightmarish situations blurring the line to her reality. Voices speak revealing fragments of her past. She meets a masked person that signifies manipulation, egoism and the dissociation of the self. Next, she stumbles upon a bound and hurt man symbolizing human suppression. Rose’s character transforms on her way through the unknown world. She had intended to take revenge on a friend of hers, but she finally manages to understand her victim’s perspective. She decides to follow the good side of her self and forgives her friend. Thus, the story transports a message of breaking the spiral of vengeance.
