Right in the Hood
You can tell hip hop is a dance of resilience. In a journey from New York to Paris we meet some dancers who tell us how hip hop changes and evolve overs the years. By exploring these two cities, we discover the places, the actors, the similarities and the differences. We will discover that urban dance is a real tool of free expression beyond gender, religion or sexuality.

Finding Bespoke: Shoemaker
To possess something bespoke, something custom made, by hand, just for you, is life’s guiltiest pleasure. An idea scribbled on a piece of paper that comes to life, made with care, attention and love. My proviso for the film was that the item made had to be hand crafted and built on site. A skill set that has been handed down and passed on. With these skill sets come stories, and these are the stories I want to discover and share. This is my original short film that follows the personal narrative of Los Angeles bespoke shoe makers Don Ville.

But They Can't Break Stones
Nepal’s civil war ended almost ten years ago, and its effects are still very visible, especially in terms of women’s rights. Violence against women is very common in Nepal and there are many women’s rights organisations trying to combat it, as well as improve women’s access to education in the aftermath of the conflict. 'But They Can’t Break Stones' follows the feminisation of a national trauma, documenting the effect the civil war had on women and how women’s lives are shaped by political instability and cultural norms that place them in domestic roles, documenting activists’ roles in Nepalese society, as well as the personal stories of women living in rural Nepal.

DREAMLAND
'Dreamland' is documentary film that moves to the rhythm of a poem, Dream-Land, by American romantic poet Edgar Allan Poe, published in 1844. An essay in sound and image, in 'Dreamland' we follow the figure of a native anthropologist as she re-visits a series of Arctic people-places. Alongside this human figure, the non-human figures of the landscape, the people-places of the Arctic, are equally foreground. The being of the Arctic is revealed as flows, as events of passage.Seen and narrated through a philosophical lens, the journey could be called an Arctic road-movie. A proposition lies at the core of the movie: that moments of a banal sublime can be glimpsed if one perseveres in engaging with some intensity, in the endless ephemeral disorder of the present, of the here-and now. The movie performs this proposition rather than arguing it. Analytically it enacts a flat ontology. The intention is philosophically serious, but the philosophy threads lightly through the text; a golden thread glinting here and there in the sombre Arctic landscape.
