The Depth Beneath, The Height Above consists in an exploration of the high alpine region of Robiei, southern Switzerland. Conceived as a sensory piece, the film particularly focuses on the existing relationships between the human, animal, infrastructural and natural elements that compose Robiei's specific landscape.

Through a juxtaposition between the aesthetics and activities that takes place above - the continuous stream of water, the movement of animals, the processes of production of cheese - and respectively below the ground level - the mechanisms and technologies involved in the hydroelectric production, as well as the humans interacting with them -, the film seek to grasp the natureculture and multispecies assemblages that characterise Robiei and other contemporary alpine landscapes.

The requerimiento was a declaration by the Spanish monarchy of Castile's divine right to take possession of the New World's territories and to subjugate, exploit and, if necessary, fight the native inhabitants.

This experimental 16mm short film explores the aesthetics of a mythological time and its archetypical creatures and materialities. In particular, following the trajectories of a serpent and a meteorite's fragment, REQUERIMIENTO develops an interwoven narration questioning human and nonhuman alterities in different epochs and cultures.

Per Voi Oggi la Luce del Sole non Splenderà is a post-apocalyptic, eco-fiction short film portraying two construction workers wandering in a “zone” where inner and outer territories intertwine. In a constant search for traces, they are increasingly confronted with a universe that over days and nights becomes overwhelming.

DI VISI DI PIETRA MEMORIE develops a poetic reflection around the issues of water exploitation and rock mining in the Swiss Alps. By juxtaposing contemporary images to archives, and by proposing a storytelling mix of documentary and fictional elements, the work is an invitation to engage with the geological and human memories that shape and haunt current extractive environments.
