I like working with what I find, with what I experience…

I enter a crowd and comb through parts of people' stories - stories concerning everyone to create a 'life' dream. The contrast of reality between different 'rhythms' is what makes up this video.

It was the holidays: light and saffron in white kitchens; faraway, under dusty garlands, faces in carbide sadness and their groans amongst the remains of music.

Thanks to: Pap and Fram for telling me their 'stories', Iurma and Carmelo for their howls, Aurora for her long-distance help, and Javier Marquerie for making the dogs make a sound.
