May our smiles not be forced for your enjoyment and may our pains no longer be hidden. May my mother Yemanja help me.

A spate of robberies in Southern California schools had an oddly specific target: tubas. In this work of creative nonfiction, d/Deaf first-time feature director Alison O’Daniel presents the impact of these crimes from an unexpected angle. The film unfolds mimicking a game of telephone, where sound’s feeble transmissibility is proven as the story bends and weaves to human interpretation and miscommunication. The result is a stunning contribution to cinematic language. O’Daniel has developed a syntax of deafness that offers a complex, overlaid, surprising new texture, which offers a dimensional experience of deafness and reorients the audience auditorily in an unfamiliar and exhilarating way.

An experimental short assembled from YouTube videos of the director’s former classmate, TV fragments, and a 2006 graduation interview recorded in Alchevsk. What starts as an ironic play with early-2000s home-video aesthetics slowly falls apart. Through montage of personal and online material, Chepelev tries to reconnect with a man he once loved – a man whom war and time have made almost unrecognisable. Laughter loses its protective function and gives way to the impossible wish to return to a place that no longer exists.

On Lanzarote — an island that is little more than solidified fire — a hand-built lens turns toward black lava fields, ash and mineral light. The 16mm is developed on the island and reworked through double exposure, chemical alterations and contact printing experiments. Beneath the images runs a composition of the filmmaker's own, drawn from lava stones and ceramic flutes. Its title taken from Lorine Niedecker's Lake Superior — "In every part of every living thing is stuff that once was rock / In blood the minerals of the rock" — the film follows that single thought to its conclusion: that flesh, breath and eye are made of the same slow mineral time as the ground beneath them.
A study of our temporal relationship with natural spaces and the memories they hold; questioning if humanity and nature resides in the same superorganism.
Noema12333 is an intuitively edited experimental film about the subjectivity of time perception, the transience of moments, and the cyclical nature of emotions. It captures fragments of both everyday and exceptional situations from the author's life during her adolescence between August 2024 and March 2025. Through the use of image, sound, light, and natural elements, the film creates space for reflection on how we truly experience time, what we preserve in memory, and what we lose. The film functions both as a diary and as a free-form visual poem that does not offer clear answers but invites the viewer to their own interpretation.
