SPINELESS

In "SPINELESS", artist Marissa Sean Cruz embodies an ogre-girl character who gets a bone lodged in her throat and is unsure if she has died from asphyxiation. Set in a digitally-rendered room , this abstracted narrative is told through a series of vignettes that look to greed, hope, and self-fulfilment in contemporary times. The ogre is caught in the chokehold of some kind of technological hell that is as absurd and alienating as the real online/offline culture it references. This purgatory world formed from a digital economy, nihilism and pressingly, under the state of climate crisis.

Early morning silence is broken by screeching tires as a helicopter bears down on a speeding vehicle. Taking a quick corner, the team tumbles out into the woods as their car pulls away. Now they must make their way through the thick of nature and thick gunfire to accomplish their mission. Not a single word of dialogue is spoken throughout the entire film. Instead, the music, sounds, images and deeply truthful acting turn a simple plot into an intense experience. Passion and intrigue keep building to the very end.

Salomé

After the lewd and frenetic Dance of the Seven Veils, and with the solemn pledge from the very lips of Herod himself that she could have whatever her heart desires up to half his kingdom, wanton and proud young Salomé comes before her king with an unreasonable demand. Beguiled by John the Baptist, and then scorned for the sake of his god, lascivious Salomé—encouraged by her mother, the vindictive, Herodias—commands that John be executed and his head delivered on a silver platter.
