At her summer job, Ivana learns it's easy to create a circle of lies, fiction and love when you're bored.

La jeune Flor passe l'été dans la maison de Iara et Cami, où travaille sa grand-mère comme domestique. Les clivages sociaux que se profilent alors entre les enfants ne sont rien comparés aux clivages issus des réseaux sociaux.

An adaptation of Jorge Luis Borges' The Chinese Fox. A man steals an indecipherable note from a pair of mythological foxes only to have his personal life fall to pieces as a consequence.

Through personal reflections, Lick Fire explores the joys and struggles that arise from the vast realm of imagination, while pondering the future implications of artificial intelligence in bringing these imagined worlds to life.

Language is the liquid that we are all dissolved in. Words and desire battle amongst one another for control.

Quintuple exposure of the city of Buenos Aires punctured with a text from Beckett.

Over the course of a year and a half, Jeff Zorrilla, obsessively shot scenes from his everyday life during the pandemic. Even though it quickly takes the form of a diary, the film also mutates into other forms, such as the epistolary, but always through collage, through the superimposition and juxtaposition of figures, colors and lights. Narrated from that melancholy, familiar sense given by the texture of 16mm stock, Lockdown Diaries explores fears, illusion, disillusion and, especially, the great changes in the life of Jeff and his family. From the uncertainty of that March, 2020, including a series of existential crisis and finally reaching a radical change in his life project, the film takes us, through a frenzied, consciously chaotic and, at the same time, intimate montage on one of the many lives affected by these strange times we’re still trying to figure out.

A look at the subculture of sex tourism in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that focuses on the motives and ideology of the clients who are part of it.

A roll of super 8 given to a first time filmmaker at the age of 68 by her son in law. She is asked to use the roll to take photos of her garden. She says the following about her film: "What do I see in my garden, through my windows? The plants and flowers that I love and the bird that I admire."

Largely a personal document of life over the course of a summer in Buenos Aires, "The Impossible Flowers" collides the voices of close friends, everyday imagery, and quotations taken from a range of diverse literary sources into a single, intimate stream of consciousness.

A duet for camera.

It is a super 8 negative color roll that I used as a camera, which means that it gives me 3600 photos. The roll was scanned at 4k by Matias Gritti and then I deleted around 500 photos that did not come out and I touched the color a bit. Then I turned the photos into a timelapse, making each photo appear for a second. The images are from my trip from Mexico to Buenos Aires and ends at the Cannes Film Festival. The audio in the short is composed of recordings I made with my phone in all these places. Enjoy it!

The shape of the sunflower divides our view of city life, juxtaposing three moments in time that create a dialogue with one another.

San Guerrero by Jeff Zorrilla

An illusory meditation on the street culture of New York City, represented through a collage of overlaid events and characters that collide at chance during the filming, chemical development and digital scanning process. Through this method, the artist embraces accidents and coincidence in favor of uncontrolled artistic expression.
