Tomorrow Doesn't Exist N/A

An experimental exploration of modern life’s emptiness, examining how the spectacle, the death of community, and the rise of individualism have reshaped our world.

Tummo N/A

Tummo is a meditative short film that immerses the viewer in the ancient Tibetan Buddhist practice of inner fire meditation. Through abstract visuals and rhythmic breathing sounds, the film evokes the transformative power of Tummo—a technique that harnesses breath and mental focus to generate profound internal heat and heightened awareness. Stripped of narrative, the film unfolds as a sensory journey, with undulating shapes and vibrant colors acting as metaphors for the rising "inner flame." The hypnotic interplay of light, sound, and movement invites the audience into a trance-like state, mirroring the meditative experience itself. Tummo is not just a film to watch but an experience to surrender to—a momentary escape from distraction into the depths of stillness and inner energy. It is an artistic exploration of the unseen fire within, offering a space for reflection, presence, and transcendence.

FOGO FRIO 2024

Fogo Frio is a contemplative meditation on Portuguese cinema and identity, framed by critic Justine Peres Smith’s haunting narration. Two landscapes—a Portuguese family home and Quebec’s Laurentian wilderness—merge in a dreamlike exploration of memory and artistic belonging. At its center, Lloyd burns letters in a fire, perhaps including Justine’s own words ("Dear Lloyd... Yours truly, Justine"). Their ambiguous bond mirrors the film’s tension between tradition and reinvention. Born from the director’s resistance to conventional "Portuguese cinema," Fogo Frio becomes a personal reckoning—a collaborative, improvisational work that challenges the solitary auteur myth. Through fire, silence, and stark beauty, it asks: How do we make art on our own terms?
