Toni and Bleri 2019

In Kosovo, two young men walk in the ghostly space of an abandoned construction worksite. Toni and Bleri evoke memories of a scarcely joyful past, as well as their dream to leave the country in search of a better life. Emigration seems to be the only possibility of a future, but how do you get into the Schengen Area when you do not have a visa or an employment contract and when you come from a region that current geopolitics have relegated to the fringes?

Improvised Objects 2021

In a world where billions are spent on state-of-the-art weaponry, the deadliest weapon is still a so-called Improvised Explosive Device, which most people can make from materials found at their homes. An IED maker, a soldier and a philosopher describe their relationship with these objects, which can have almost any shape, form and content.

Red Dust 2025

A couple of times a year, the sky turns red in France. Sand dust from the Sahara is passed through a difference in air pressure from North Africa to Southern Europe. This dust, a time capsule containing cesium-137 from the French nuclear tests in Algeria, covers everything. The film exposes the impact of a war that was never fought. A French veteran and archeology students share and speculate on what will be remembered and what will be hidden under the sand forever.
