              In Memorias, norias y fábricas de lejía, images portraying happiness – the only images that home movies allow – clash with a voiceover recounting stories of the migration of agricultural workers from rural Andalusia to industrial centers in Catalonia. A film-essay on migration, memory and the impossibility of accessing self-representation.

              Mapas Migrantes looks at migration in Barcelona from the period following the Civil War up until the present, through the city's buildings, infrastructures and street furniture. It is a kind of atlas, a series of maps that take shape through the voices of migrants, whose tales of the past invite us to re-read the city. Charting the invisible, we enter a territory in which individual subjectivities erase the boundaries laid down by the dominant discourse.

              In the industrial suburbs of Beirut, three men talk about their sexual relationships: beginning, middle and end, hiding nothing. The video explores the ideal "male" that attracts them and they share with most boys his age. The cult of the body, songs and sexual language are verbal and non-verbal elements articulate their fantasies. The stories they tell us begin with the seduction, and end when they have fucked. This is the image they want to project in front of the camera, the "brave and beguiling" guy. In this context, desire is a commodity and romantic relationships always lead to failure.

              A conversation at the microMeeting de Ru'a [visions] at the CCCBA. 05.17.2013 "Knowing the West with my own eyes ... Despite globalization, we never see images of the white man working ... We see that he is in a hurry, but who cleans his streets? ... My grandfather told me that the white man He deceives us, tells us that we are poor, but we are not! What happens is that he only knows one level of wealth, the most basic, the most ephemeral and material ... For him, everything that is not visible is madness or superstition ... "
