Foreclosure is a filmic documentation of a performance conceived in response to an escalating global political crisis and presented on December 13 in the artist’s studio, shortly before the intensification of war involving the United States, Israel, and Iran. Drawing on psychoanalytic theory, the work centers on the concept of Verwerfung (foreclosure), introduced by Sigmund Freud and later developed by Jacques Lacan as the forclusion du Nom-du-Père. Unlike repression, foreclosure designates what is never symbolized and therefore returns in the real as delusion or hallucination. This structure—marked not by cognitive disintegration but by affective rigidity and disturbing clarity—forms the core of the performance. Through a deeply personal narrative, I trace this mechanism in the figure of my father, who had been a passionate Nazi, whose denial of reality manifested in extreme ideological and misogynistic positions. His refusal to acknowledge an extramarital affair—recasting the woman as a fictive “comrade”—becomes a lived example of foreclosure in action. Extending beyond the personal, Foreclosure draws parallels to contemporary political dynamics, where denied realities are replaced by delusional certainties. Figures such as Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Mohammed bin Salman embody this logic, illustrating how foreclosure at the level of power can culminate in violence and war. The project also incorporates responses from Hannah and Vadim, two Ukrainian refugees invited to develop their own performances on the theme of war, expanding the work into a collective reflection on trauma, denial, and geopolitical conflict. Foreclosure ultimately interrogates the psychic structures that underpin both intimate and global forms of violence, revealing how what is excluded from symbolization returns with destructive force.

Set in 1855 Missouri, Celia follows an enslaved woman living on the Newsom plantation who endures ongoing abuse at the hands of her enslaver, Robert Newsom.

When Robert attempts to assault her once again, Celia fights back and kills him. Fearing the brutal consequences faced by enslaved people accused of killing their masters, she uses both fire and spiritual practices to conceal the crime. As suspicion grows and the plantation descends into tension, Celia takes drastic measures to eliminate anyone who could expose the truth. With the help of a few fellow enslaved people, Celia destroys the remaining evidence, creating a fleeting moment of freedom on the plantation. When her lover George returns after attempting to escape, they reunite in a fragile sense of liberation—aware that their freedom is temporary, but real for the moment.

Guided by the compass through a shifting landscape of memory and illusion, she begins to relive fragments of a love she thought she’d buried—one marked by passion, betrayal, and silence. But she’s not alone in this dreamscape. Awaiting her is a former lover, left behind and broken, who now stands with a disarming smile, a sharpened blade, and a score to settle. As dream bleeds into nightmare, and the path forward becomes a maze of guilt and reckoning, she must face the emotional wreckage of their past before the compass leads her to a final, irreversible choice.

Foster care is not always what it seems. Growing up in the system, the experience was a nightmare—one filled with sights no child should endure and a harsh reality devoid of happy endings. Protecting younger siblings became a mission then, and now that mission continues with the creation of Unbroken Ties, a deeply personal documentary that sheds light on the foster care system. This story is not just one person's experience; it reflects the horrifying reality faced by countless children today. Even as this story unfolds, somewhere, a child is likely enduring abuse. Unbroken Ties delves into the trauma children face when removed from their homes—not because they are the problem, but because their environment and parenting have failed them. It also highlights the hope and healing that can arise through chosen families—those who step in when no one else will. For Nathaniel Navarro, this chosen family provided the love and security that birth families sometimes cannot, proving that the bonds we create can be stronger than the ones we are born into. Through archival footage and interviews, the documentary explores resilience, love, and the transformative power of choosing who we call family.

The following short documental is based on research conducted in the province of Castellón, Spain, and highlights a clear message: proper nutrition during pregnancy and breastfeeding is essential for the health of both mother and baby. The study shows that, although many women try to care for their diet during these stages, eating habits do not always meet recommended nutritional needs, with low consumption of foods such as fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and cereals, as well as deficiencies in key nutrients. It also underlines that maternal nutrition should remain a priority after childbirth, since the mother continues to face important physical and nutritional demands during lactation, even when attention is often focused mainly on the baby. Supporting women with better nutritional guidance and care during pregnancy and breastfeeding is therefore crucial to protect maternal health, support breastfeeding, and promote a healthier start in life for children. This research is especially valuable because it was carried out without public funding, made possible instead by the generous voluntary participation of the mothers involved and the dedicated, altruistic commitment of the researchers, whose work reflects both scientific vocation and a shared desire to improve maternal and infant health.
