This film explores the perception of Lisandro, a 16-year-old boy who is on the autistic spectrum. His mother, Valentina, an actress, has raised him between backstages and dressing rooms. Is there any difference for him between reality and fiction?

In a world where technological progress is conceived as an arrow pointing forward, why do some people insist on continuing to work with equipment others refer to as obsolete? Analog Thinking answers that question by documenting the meticulous work of those who choose that path. The screen becomes filled with wonderful objects—optical toys, cameras, projectors, film stock cans, moviolas… And the testimonies from those creators invite us to discover a universe that has a lot to do with both craftsmanship and the collective experience—an instance of thinking with your hands that is only possible with curiosity and patience. And among the words, practices and artifacts, Analog Thinking also saves a place for the images that are born from all of that. And it reminds us that, even in this digital age, they still have a lot to teach us about waiting and making mistakes, surprise and beauty.

At her summer job, Ivana learns it's easy to create a circle of lies, fiction and love when you're bored.

Footage produced by creating images directly on film stock. "Cinematic Graffiti. A defacing of the image of normality sold to the public en masse. We manipulate these images to express our visceral reaction as filmmakers and artists to the inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States, the disasterous yet logical conclusion of a system that is finally imploding before our eyes."

A look at the subculture of sex tourism in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that focuses on the motives and ideology of the clients who are part of it.

Over the course of a year and a half, Jeff Zorrilla, obsessively shot scenes from his everyday life during the pandemic. Even though it quickly takes the form of a diary, the film also mutates into other forms, such as the epistolary, but always through collage, through the superimposition and juxtaposition of figures, colors and lights. Narrated from that melancholy, familiar sense given by the texture of 16mm stock, Lockdown Diaries explores fears, illusion, disillusion and, especially, the great changes in the life of Jeff and his family. From the uncertainty of that March, 2020, including a series of existential crisis and finally reaching a radical change in his life project, the film takes us, through a frenzied, consciously chaotic and, at the same time, intimate montage on one of the many lives affected by these strange times we’re still trying to figure out.

An illusory meditation on the street culture of New York City, represented through a collage of overlaid events and characters that collide at chance during the filming, chemical development and digital scanning process. Through this method, the artist embraces accidents and coincidence in favor of uncontrolled artistic expression.

A duet for camera.

Through personal reflections, Lick Fire explores the joys and struggles that arise from the vast realm of imagination, while pondering the future implications of artificial intelligence in bringing these imagined worlds to life.

An homage to a new visual dialect that has become a symbol of the virtual forms of communication and at the same time — due to its fascination with the fundamentals of the moving image — a memento of the birth of cinema. The continuous flow of disperse images works as a glimpse into the unconscious of the visual consumer in the age of social media, while the use of film creates a dialogue between the digital and the analogue that crafts a new texture of the real.

Quintuple exposure of the city of Buenos Aires punctured with a text from Beckett.

A short Documentary about an American ex-pat who lives in Buenos Aires and works as a city tour guide during the day and a sexual tour guide during the night. The film was first short on vision 3 negative super 8 and then refilmed we color reversal super 8 from my computer screen so that I can project it live. It is a first glimpse of my full-length feature called Monger.

The shape of the sunflower divides our view of city life, juxtaposing three moments in time that create a dialogue with one another.

Language is the liquid that we are all dissolved in. Words and desire battle amongst one another for control.

Largely a personal document of life over the course of a summer in Buenos Aires, "The Impossible Flowers" collides the voices of close friends, everyday imagery, and quotations taken from a range of diverse literary sources into a single, intimate stream of consciousness.

It is a super 8 negative color roll that I used as a camera, which means that it gives me 3600 photos. The roll was scanned at 4k by Matias Gritti and then I deleted around 500 photos that did not come out and I touched the color a bit. Then I turned the photos into a timelapse, making each photo appear for a second. The images are from my trip from Mexico to Buenos Aires and ends at the Cannes Film Festival. The audio in the short is composed of recordings I made with my phone in all these places. Enjoy it!

A roll of super 8 given to a first time filmmaker at the age of 68 by her son in law. She is asked to use the roll to take photos of her garden. She says the following about her film: "What do I see in my garden, through my windows? The plants and flowers that I love and the bird that I admire."
