Emilio

Emilio

2026 • 9 min • Italy
A slice of cake, three strangers and a strong personal motivation. These are the three elements around which the story revolves – in fact, a dialogue – between three people who do not know one another, but who all want the same thing: a slice of cake, precisely. No one seems willing to let go of the object of their desire, whilst the conversation increasingly turns into a verbal clash, oscillating between barbs, anecdotes and moments of incomprehension. Inspired by Jim Jarmusch’s Coffee and Cigarettes, EMILIO allows the viewer to eavesdrop undisturbed on the conversation of three characters vying for a dessert and, at the same time, conceals a symbolic and profound narrative that nods to Jungian psychoanalysis and its archetypes of the Self, Shadow and Anima.

Bluetiful

Bluetiful

2026 • 4 min • Belgium, Türkiye
Bluetiful is a dark, gothic visual exploration of the inner duality of a woman navigating the spaces between instinct, emotion, and identity. Set within a haunting, swamp like landscape, the film follows a fragmented self split between purity and distortion. The horned figure represents intrusive, shadowed thoughts, while the submerged self reflects vulnerability and emotional depth. These two entities continuously reach toward one another, embodying an ongoing internal confrontation between clarity and chaos. Through symbolic imagery, including a man lying in a coffin, fire dancers, and a circle of women who gradually transform into lifeless figures, the narrative unfolds as a subconscious journey. These elements represent fading parts of the self: innocence, belief, and innate strength, which are often lost or suppressed over time. At its core, Bluetiful is a story of persistence. It acts as a call to continue despite inner conflict, doubt, and emotional resistance. Inspired by rhythm as an internal compass, the piece reflects the idea of listening to one’s own heartbeat as a guide through uncertainty. Musically, the project blends traditional 9/8 Turkish rhythmic structures with modern Western sound design, creating an East West synthesis that stands at the core of its identity. This fusion, particularly highlighted in the solo sections, has drawn significant international attention and contributed to the artist’s expansion onto global stages. The track and its visual interpretation were previously recognised by Metal Hammer Magazine, where it was selected as a first place work globally, further establishing its impact within the contemporary alternative music scene. The film also allows for a feminist reading: a female protagonist navigating her own psychological landscape within a traditionally male dominated musical space. Surrounded by female figures, the narrative emphasises both solidarity and the quiet erosion of identity shaped by external pressures. Blending surreal symbolism with dark aesthetics, Bluetiful creates a layered experience that invites multiple interpretations, from personal transformation to subconscious confrontation, leaving the viewer suspended between beauty and darkness.
