Themself
This work draws from the experience as a founding member of the Queer Choir Amsterdam, together with Shreya de Souza & Sarah Naqvi. The film, which is far from being a documentary about the choir, explores the personal experiment of active resistance while creating an imaginary universe, free of societal binaries and limitations.

Joaquín Gaztambide’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream was first performed at the Teatro del Circo in 1852. Participating in the revival of this comic opera are Miguel Ángel Gómez-Martínez, the veteran musical director, who considers Gaztambide to be “interesting, enjoyable and the holder of an extraordinary musical quality”, and Marco Carniti, the stage director, who wants to make us enjoy the beauty of a work which cheerfully veers between dream and reality. The libretto has been completely revamped and the action moved to Rome in the 1950s. Broadcast live from the Teatro de la Zarzuela on February 10th, 2019.
