During the pandemic, I worked on a visually experimental short-film, produced in an improvised studio and with very low resources. The film explored the complex layers of dissociation that occur during trauma responses associated with PTSD. Simultaneously, it sought to illustrate the transformative power of pain, highlighting how we can channel it into creativity and create our own freedom. In an abstract manner, the film drew parallels between our human experience and the creative forces of nature. It emphasized that just as nature is inherently creative, so too are we as individuals. By delving into the depths of dissociation and the subsequent journey towards healing and self-expression, the film aimed to inspire viewers to recognize their own innate creative potential.

This is a last-minute recorded dance video but that was worth it to dedicate some time on the editing, the goal was to bring the retro-futuristic vibes in its peak. An improvised visual dance performance by Nathan Soares, our creative director.
