Yupumá 2024
‘Yupumá’ refers to doing something for the first time. This indigenous concept, belonging to the Huni Kuin/Kaxinawá people from the lowland Brazilian Amazon, serves as the backdrop to this film where we follow Kawá Huni Kuin, an apprentice pajé preparing to leave his village deep in the forest to go to Europe for the first time.

Coney Island - As Primeiras Vezes 2024    star_border 10
Three times she travelled until the last stop on the F line. Each as if it was the first. There she found a meatless Disneyland, only skin, bone and memories. She thought of Dorothy and her dog. On her skin she felt the taste of the sea and she discovered new flavours as she dived into the freezing cold water. Now she fears everything will vanish like a wave that goes and never returns. Unlike her, I never travelled to the end of the F line. But I can see, hear and feel it. Can you?

The Visit and a Secret Garden 2022    star_border 7
Little is known about the figure of Isabel Santaló, an old artist, today fallen into oblivion. But occasionally some visitors come to her flat. Through them and the voice of Antonio López (Dream of Light, Víctor Erice), the only painter who remembers her, we shape a multifaceted film. This is a cinematic portrait, which well into the film takes a surprising turn. A film that reflects on memory and oblivion, art and the creative process; posing the question of what it means to be an artist and a woman.
