The Flood reclaims the myth of Ophelia as a surreal, modern-day exorcism of the roles imposed on women. Cutting between the wild, untamed shoreline of Southsea and the suffocating stillness of a contemporary home, the film traces the invisible pressures; societal, bodily, and familial that demand containment. By removing Queen Gertrude’s distant narration and returning the story to Ophelia herself, her death is transformed from passive tragedy into an act of agency and release. As sky bleeds into sea and the body begins to fracture, the film drifts into a haunting descent through a fluid, uncontained mind.

A Student stumbles into an abandoned building and discovers a Madman, sparking a discussion which may decide the fate of the universe.

Mother and daughter having a conversation about society, women, men, and democracy in ancient Greece. Based on "The Republic" by Plato, this fun twist on the cave allegory demonstrates that women can hold philosophical conversations too. As long as the wine keeps pouring.

In 1940, a young, aspiring theologian, Darina, attends a college admission interview for religious studies. She has to convince three professors that she deserves to be at the University, even though no other women were admitted before. A short film based on the real life of the first female Lutheran pastor in Slovakia who infiltrated into the man's world of the Church, Darina Bancikova.
