This is a short film about the first time I met the organizer and members of the "Iran Transsexual Support Society" in the summer of 2006 in Tehran. The group went on to play a pivotal role in bringing visibility and acceptance of sexual minorities in Iran until the death of its founder Ms. Maryam Khatoon Molkara in 2012.

The vanishing point of linear perspective is expanded to a plane. This allows all of the potential events within that vanishing point to mingle freely on the surface of the screen. Local sounds blend and shift. The expanded horizon causes reverberating fractures in time; multiple realities branch and flow through one another, creating a sponge-space of possibilities.

The Philippines is the world’s fourth-largest exporter of labour. One in eight Filipinos are overseas workers. Every year, awards are handed out among them to ‘recognise the most outstanding Filipino workers and their families for their exceptional achievements’. In the video The Model Family Award, Lizza May David captures the award ceremony to create awareness about this socio-political situation, as this commodification and exportation of human labour disrupts families. Besides criticising the contest and its organiser, the artist is also interested in exploring the often ambiguously suggestive power of the visual image and the media. Where is the line between reality and imagination? Between documentation and fiction?

Betty Brassell, a 78-year-old retired telephone operator born and raised in rural Georgia, spends nearly every day - rain or shine - protesting in the streets of New York City, her walker currently emblazoned with “Arrest Cheney.” Although she still holds on to her thick Southern drawl, Betty has called Manhattan’s Lower East Side home for more than 50 years, after escaping an abusive marriage and relocating with her children to New York in 1954. When she retired in the mid-1990s, activism became a new calling, even though she had never voted before. Her weeks soon filled with protests, meetings and campaigns. But as life tends to do at unexpected moments, it throws Betty a curveball - she injures herself at a large protest and must be homebound for months. The documentary follows Betty through several protests and her three-month recovery, leading up to her preparation for a large protest against the war in Iraq.

Student film re-imagining of Scorsese's first student film THE BIG SHAVE. A bathroom, clean and empty, is occupied by a man who needs a shave. Soon the space flows with red as Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side" dreadfully dances along with the self-mutilation of the man's face as it is torn apart from a razor on the outside and something else within.

In southern Italy, in the 1960s, women danced into a trance to free themselves from the tarantula's venom. A remnant of an ancient rite, I set out to see what remained of it in Galatina on June 28th, a feast day. Reusing the trance images from Mingozzi's film Taranta (1962), I contrast them with the beauty of Puglia and what happens today on June 28th, when the tarantella is danced until the early hours. "Des Tarantelles" is a poetic reflection on transformation, the survival of rites in our contemporary world.

The film explores the notion of home within the context of the urban expansion of Vitoria-Gasteiz, the capital of the Basque Country. It follows young adults who prepare for a new stage in their lives: How to plan the furnishing of a recently purchased apartment yet to be finished? How to cater for the birth of the first child? These personal experiences are juxtaposed with documentation of a lottery organized by the authorities to allocate subsidized apartments and of activists claiming the refurbishment of empty buildings in the center of the city.

Two videos are projected on two walls of the small viewing space. The videos present two classes from a reorganized future society—the Crunch Division and the Peace Division. The people of the Crunch Division wear strange uniforms and do peculiar, regimented exercises to the blinking and buzzing of a red light. The people of the Peace Division sit and lay on the ground lackadaisically in empty hallways and rooms, and sip water out of extremely long straws.

The message of the film is a tribute by representatives from various segments of society to Anonymous Martyrs.

This documentary recounts a deeply humanistic episode based on testimonies and conversations with Miguel Sanmartí, who stirred the hearts and consciences of a segment of Paraguayan youth and was accused in 1976 of being the head of the Political-Military Organization (OPM). The importance of preserving Paraguayan historical memory, upholding human rights, publicly refuting accusations, and demonstrating that utopias are possible are the pillars upon which this documentary is built.
