Intermission

May 30, 2017
It’s a film about suspension. A suspension of thought.Its inspired by the disappearance of Mariam Makhniashvili who disappeared in Toronto but was found dead two years after. It’s about remembrance, the power of a suspended thought. When a loved one disappears or someone vanishes for no reason, no trace, no answer, no closure, our thoughts enter a very specific state of mind. A state that is not clearly defined. The weight, our imagination, our love, our hope become a suspension, a powerful and emotional state. This suspension becomes an Intermission.

I Deserve

May 03, 2015
“I Deserve” (2015) is an avant-garde film, an essay of archetypes, female archetypes in the corporate and extremely capitalist world that we live in. It was inspired by the need to be and appear “successful” and effective. The idea that the oppressed have to be overcome as an objective and their struggles and over pass the oppressor, in this case, the man. In many cases this objective has made them ultra superior beings that not only surpass the man but also have created a new breed of beings. The psychological state can be mixed with issues of repression and how architecture, spaces, structures and lighting can contribute to create specific worlds. A dialogue between Ayn Rand’s objectivism and Fassbinder’s Martha to give an example.
