Poster for Timur. History of the Last Flight

2005 · ★ 0.0 (0)

In 2001, near Pskov, at an air show, a disaster occurred in front of 10,000 spectators. The crash of the plane, which was controlled by Timur Apakidze, was filmed by dozens of cameras. The film also contains the voice of Apakidze himself, who, shortly before his death, as if anticipating it, managed to talk about how the pilot feels in an emergency flight, being on the verge of life and death. And how painful is the choice between ejection-life and the desire to save the plane.

2012 · ★ 0.0 (0)

It is a collaborative project that was developed from the documentation collected in an extensive travel through four Latin American cities: Mexico City (Mexico), Buenos Aires (Argentina), La Paz (Bolivia) and Lima (Peru). The result is a new journey constructed with sound and animation of Buenos Aires. This reconstruction was made from the memories of the journey, from the interaction with each city and with epistolary communication.

Poster for What Is Poetry to You?

1980 · ★ 6.0 (1)

Cecilia Vicuña made her first documentary while residing in Colombia after the 1973 coup d’état in Chile. Through this fundamental inquiry: ¿Qué es para usted la poesía? / What is poetry to you?, Vicuña unravels the role and substance of poetry in people’s lives. Speaking with school children, street performers, policemen, sex workers, fellow artists, and a scientist, the all embracing character of poetry emerges—its transformative role in personal relations, as a basis of oral history and the revolutionary imagination. – Chris Borkowski

Poster for Dorian, a cinematic perfume

2009 · ★ 0.0 (0)

"Dorian, a cinematic perfume" is based on Oscar Wilde’s 19th century novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and its themes of decadence, narcissism and the meaning of art. I have interpreted the story and it’s queer undertones by casting Dorian as a young woman discovered by a fashion photographer, then catapulted into the world of empty celebrity. She falls under the tutelage of a famous drag queen and becomes a nightclub luminary, constantly followed by the paparazzi. These media images become the infamous portrait, grotesquely mutating as she grows more beautiful and famous, culminating in her own narcissistic destruction.
