Liminal
Executive Producer
Uma comissão da FICUNAM para quatro diretores, Liminal busca brincar com as afinidades poéticas entre o cinema e a música. Movendo-se entre diferenças estéticas e geracionais, os cineastas exploram essa relação por meio de quatro histórias distintas quanto ao contexto e ao imaginário.
Strange But True
Writer
The love story of Jonathan and Yesi, two garbage collectors working under the despotic and violent Master Clean's command. He is always followed closely by Mum, a longtime collector who silently and ghostly cleans the streets of the city. One night, while doing their work, they find the corpse of a man with money. Master Clean takes a terrible decision. Jonathan and Yesi plan their escape. A tragedy looms.

The Last Film
Associate Producer

Lopez Street
Thanks
In the eyes of a foreigner practically any street of Mexico City’s Centro Histórico holds potential for a film. Life on the street deserves more than just the natural condition of observer anyone could have, it demands an extra attention. In a 100-meter radius, the sociological exuberance of the events going on is simply impossible to ignore. The street is a mise en scène in itself.
Malaventura
Editor
Tracking an old man (with a truly Bela Tarr-like persistence) through the streets and bars, and porn cinemas, and taco-joints, of Mexico City on what might be the pensioner's last day on Earth, Critic/curator-turned-film-director Lipkes has crafted an undeniably challenging but beautifully realised vision of modern loneliness.
