In a lonely holiday residence populated by old photographs with people
from another era, a woman gets up one morning and wanders around the
place although she never gets direct contact with other people. As the
day goes by and a storm approaches, the beings in the photos are
gaining more presence while the real people disappear. Finally, at
nightfall, she will realize that she can not escape her destiny.

The social mechanisms of control and surveillance govern how we view
things and our bodies. In the same way, they have functioned as a
method of exclusion, which for years has systematically silenced the
voice of populations that have been victims of violence.
With this video art I seek to achieve a transgression and a rejection
to those impositions through my active and non-passive perspective as
an artist and a woman in a patriarchal society. The above can lead to
questioning that viewing in public space and how the role played by
the representation of women in the sexual construction.

Like an inexplicable dream, erratic gestures come to the surface.
Re-cover splits its two meanings and pits then against each other. A
Janus-faced melting pot of dust, sentence fragments, gestures and
flash frames. This Found Footage Film is a technological situation, a
black hole devouring itself. It is a cancer in denial of its own
narrative. Re-cover salvages the lingering fragments of a lost history
through the very act of burial.

A woman mourns the drowning of a young communist revolutionary that
took place years ago. She sinks into herself and recreates a story
that coalesces memory, delirium, and forgetting.

The film is a representation of love: obsessive, idealistic, naive and
extremely focused. Filmed in an abstracted atmosphere, in implacable
conditions, the place is tangled to the story and the narrative. K and
H come back to where it all happened to reflect for the last time
before leaving.

The section "Cinéma in Transgression" offers middle or feature lengh films out of norm and order, between fiction and documentary, characterised by complex audio-visual languages, unpredictable associations based on unconcient, metaphorical and metonymical proceedings. In this way these films can express the complexity of reality.
