Absence
Bernarda, an 82-year-old peasant woman, must face the loss and mourning of her husband, one more victim of a war that is not seen, but felt. A war that descends like mist from the top of the mountain leaving everything in its path blank.
Songs Overheard in the Shadows
Balanced on the edge of what is visible, everything comes from nothingness and returns to nothingness. Strands of consciousness trying to convene with each other. Forms of personal significance in a time of crisis, set free into random motion through chance operations. Recurring details point towards a center.
La Muerte del Toro
A visual and sound montage about a fighting bull in the arena.
Dreamover
