A constellation-like video project emerging from No Ghost Just a Shell, this work repositions the digital character Annlee as an unstable subject caught between authors, images, and borrowed narratives. Rather than offering a single viewpoint, the piece multiplies perspectives: Annlee becomes a vessel through which different artists test the limits of agency, voice, and representation in the age of licensed avatars. I Am Dreaming About a Reality? examines what happens when a character is freed from commercial authorship yet remains bound to the expectations projected onto her—an experiment in identity that hovers between animation, conceptual art, and philosophical inquiry.

Places and worlds beyond the interest of the media are at the mercy of the law of forgetting. The spotlight fades and that which urgently needs public attention lies in the dark: poverty, hopelessness, and the population's fear in the face of terror from the state or from gangs, of Mafia-like business practices and paramilitary despotism. This is not a journey to a far-off land, outside of our cultural circle; it takes place along the old transport and trade routes through the decaying empires of southeast Europe. The images collected at the side of the road distill something essential from a number of small but significant observations: the coincidence of the lack of coincidence in living conditions.

Human portrait of a generation of filmmakers, born as a result of the Salamanca Conversations (1955), who tried to show throughout the 60s the social reality of our country. Beyond the review of some times, or a description of the facts, we have tried to approach the looks, the memories, the silences, the desires and the struggle of its protagonists. Because in those years Patino, Borau, Camus, Picazo, Summers and Saura set out to do something that no one had asked them to do: a different, critical, innovative and personal cinema, values that we miss today.
