Poster for A Little Bit Country

2012 · ★ 0.0 (0)

"A Little Bit Country" is about an inevitable part of growing up: the sinking feeling when your parents find your cigarettes, lads magazines or the cheap cider hidden in your wardrobe - and confront you one morning across the kitchen table. Whether it's model trains, crochet and crafts, coin collecting, doll making or medieval reenactments, we all pursue peculiar passions that we may be too afraid to admit to the world. And the question is, "Are you a little bit country too?"

Poster for Longing for Light

2023 · ★ 0.0 (0)

An exploration of Barcelona through light, as it falls on the streets of the city and the people around me who live there: my chosen family. The sun as a brush that naturally highlights what can be seen and what remains in the darkness, clashing with the human artifice of the city, captured with my filmmaker's gaze. A gaze affected by being a lesbian from a small town in Lleida who's been living in Barcelona for 13 years. A journey from the intimacy of the rooms, friends and lovers that surround me, through the narrow streets of the Raval district to the sunset on the mountain of Montjuïc. From the city to urban nature, the lights and shadows, its people and their ability to be and exist.
