One blow to the head and we'll be lying on the floor.

Lightning Bolt 'Blow to the Head'

A luminous look at a desperate man’s existential crisis. During a night of stormy drunkenness, he receives a visit from a mysterious bird and is forced to reconsider his life.

Moi, Barnabé (I, Barnabé)

A woman is upset to learn that she must leave her apartment. Her tears create a rather surreal panorama of the area and its people.

Pá kis panelom! (Bye Little Block!)

The caretaker is exhausted by everything, his frustrated wife and one totally depressed deer.

SH_T Happens

In the Shadow of the Pines is a deeply personal animated documentary short about a difficult father-daughter relationship inspired by the filmmaker’s own upbringing with her immigrant dad, who was also the janitor at the elementary school she attended. The film questions the idea of shame and how it can shape and define us while inhibiting who we can truly become.

In the Shadow of the Pines

A short opera inspired by Aesop's fable “The Fighting Cocks and the Eagle”.
