Joële Walinga

A feature-length documentary/fiction hybrid which brings to life images requested by individuals in long-term solitary confinement.

Filmed in Coimbra during the COVID-19 pandemic, Reabertura captures the city in the process of reopening, as businesses sanitize and reorganize in preparation for the new "normal", pointing to an unsettlingly capitalistic adaptation of reality.

Entirely comprised of unlocked surveillance footage from across the globe, Self-Portrait is an abstract look at ourselves through the things we've chosen to point our cameras at.

Cave Small Cave Big is a film written by five-year-olds Madeline Harker and Adelaide Schwartz. Made to respect the gravity of the material, the film jumps from character to character as they cope with the transience of ownership, capturing that moment in a young mind when new muscles are stretched to grapple with ideas about possession and loss.

Using archival footage and the melodrama outlined in an email from a junk inbox, worlds of isolation and desperation collide in an ultra short film that brings to life a tale designed to scam someone.

Filmmaker Joële Walinga documents a moment of faith and waiting in the life of her Christian mother, a French-Canadian living in the Bible Belt who has opted to forgo cancer treatment.
