Navidad Pacífica

"Religiosity and music were two weapons capable of surviving the tragedy of enslavement, trafficking, colonization, segregation and racial prejudice". In the coastal town of Guapí, the feast dedicated to the Child God is the manifestation that identifies them as a black community of the Pacific, in which the particular vision and magical-religious conception present in their relationships with nature, the universe, spirits and the supernatural are made visible. This documentary is a process of observation of the celebration of the Christmas festivities in the municipality of Guapi, in the Department of Cauca.

Le Rêve de la pêcheuse

This piece is inspired by Hokusai's 1814 print entitled The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife, which is part of the shunga (erotic art book) Kinoe no Komatsu describing the misadventures of a pearl diver who defies a dragon king, god of the sea, to recover a stolen jewel. Hokusai offers a highly eroticized vision of this tragic tale, in which the monster is protected by enterprising octopuses and seduced by the princess. This piece uses datamoshing to combine bodies and materials in a colorful underwater arabesque.

Du côté de la réalité immédiate

"We live in a time of urgency, speed of mass information and algorithms. How does it influence our lives, our social contacts, and what will be our future? French filmmaker Pierre Villemin explores these questions in his excellent experimental film On the Side of Immediate Reality. In a «voice-over» that represents an obsessive emergency - gentle but demanding at the same time - Villemin asks questions that concern us all. Subjects as vast as humanity, or as small as our daily use of Facebook, which play an essential role in the director’s investigation into our malaise in the 21st century. On the side of immediate reality is a double-edged film that invites the viewer to ask questions, find answers, reflect on the world in which we live and on ourselves." Nadin Mai, Tao Films, 2018.
