Director
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.
Director
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.
Director
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.

Director
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!
