Soleil gris
Under a scorching sun, Charlie is bored and dreams of going to the seaside. But she's forced to stay in a dingy motel with her cousin Jess, who slouches in her deckchair. The pool is empty, the sun is beating down and the tension is mounting: the ecological apocalypse announced on the radio suddenly becomes real.

I Died in Irpin
24 February 2022 my boyfriend and I fled from Kyiv to Irpin. We spent 10 days in a blockaded city and managed to escape with the last evacuation convoy. Time passed, but the feeling that I died in Irpin never left me since then. The film reconstructs this true story of survival through a personal and subjective lens.
