    Directed by Luca Rodolico · Drama · 10 min

  11. SLEEP VIDEO

    'Sleep Video' is an exploration into the subconscious mind and a look into the mysticism of the night, obstinate remaining despite the enlightenment of the modern world. As the stream-of-consciousness prose poem 'Conscious Thought from Late Evening Until Morning' that 'narrates' the video suggests, this project attempts to breakdown and visualise the bizarre and fevered chaos of the dreaming mind using rational and matter-of-fact language and imagery. I find black and white highly dramatic, less destructive compared to colour, and it creates a fitting atmosphere for the subject of the film. Sometimes our illogical, obscure, and chaotic dreams are remembered in black and white.

A young profiler or detective is tasked with interviewing this entity, but the deeper they go into the Devil’s twisted logic, the more they risk losing their grip on reality. As the boundary between evil and artistry blurs, the ultimate question emerges: to catch a monster, how close must one come to becoming one?

  52. Memories of the Future

    "Memories of the Future" is a cinematic reflection on the growing crisis of space debris, blending science, metaphor, and artistic abstraction. The film is presented from the perspective of a child—a future Earthling—who looks back at humanity’s actions with both wonder and concern. This perspective shapes the visual style: everything is slightly exaggerated, much like a child’s drawing, but rendered in a futuristic way. The satellites appear oversized, the debris fields impossibly dense, and the vastness of space feels surreal. It is a new era of storytelling, where scientific reality meets the boundless imagination of a child. At the heart of the film is a seemingly insignificant object—a single bolt. It drifts through space, small and unassuming against the backdrop of immense orbital structures. But its presence is deceptive. The bolt represents overlooked dangers, a silent consequence of human negligence. As it moves through the cosmos, it ultimately cracks a camera lens, distorting the view—a metaphorical warning that ignoring a problem does not make it disappear. Like a tiny mistake that spirals into disaster, the bolt embodies the unintended consequences of human actions. The film’s aesthetic is deeply influenced by classical opera and ballet, using Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, 2nd Movement to transform the slow-motion collision of debris into a haunting "space ballet." The choice of music elevates the visuals, creating a dreamlike yet unsettling atmosphere where beauty and destruction coexist. By incorporating real audio recordings—Sputnik 1’s signal, abstract radio transmissions, and Earth's magnetic field sounds—the film merges fiction with reality, grounding its imaginative visuals in scientific authenticity. The child’s voice, generated artificially, adds an emotional layer, as if the future is speaking directly to the past.

  94. The Horse Whisperer

    The Horse Whisperer is an immersive short film about the life of Jean François Pignon, a man from humble beginnings in the South of France, who was captivated as a teenager by Gazelle, a white horse his father gave him. In the film he recounts the incredibly strong bond he formed with Gazelle and how he began to develop an extraordinary ability to communicate with her. We learn of his brave response to the tragedy of her loss. But through this adversity he developed his connection with other horses, which leads him to build up a troupe of remarkable horses. He describes his love for each horse as being equal but different, as it is with his children. As Jean François Pignon reveals exactly how he manages to achieve his unique bond and wordless communication with his horses - and all horses - we discover that it is these creatures’ extreme sensitivity that allows them to ‘read’ humans in an instant. We learn that you cannot lie to a horse and as we witness Pignon emanate a sense of serenity and calm, we understand that his state of being is what allows the horses to fully trust him – a state of being that perhaps we could all learn something from.

    The night comes to its end at the greek night club (bouzouki-dance floor). It’s five o’clock in the morning.

Nobody could have guessed what would happen when the leading star of the night program, the famous singer Koureas, begins to sing his brand new hit, a zeibekiko* song called, ‘the bearded man’. A sequence of ecstatic events? A raised challenge? Hugs hanged on alcohol? Maniera Greca or in other words, the way the world goes round?

  109. Heaven & Hell

    In this film, I’ve sought to create a multi-sensory audit of a world in collapse, bridging the widening chasm between political hypocrisy and our fractured social reality. By centering the film on the recurring motif of a fraying flag, I wanted to expose the terrifying fragility of democracy as it buckles under the weight of human greed. I chose to set this human turmoil against the indifferent majesty of nature—where falling snow and rising oceans serve as a silent witness to our choices. Complemented by Veryan’s haunting soundscape and Liz Helman’s narration, the work stands as a cinematic elegy for the marginalized. Ultimately, it is a poetic reminder that while the powerful debate our future, the heaviest burden is always borne by those least responsible for the crisis.
