    Canada | 2024 | 5’19 | v.o. sott. ITA Italian Preview

    Through the energy of a classice tune from the golden age of Argentinean tango, Loca, a woman finds a path to freedom. As she whirls, a duo forms, their bodies intertwined in a black-and-white geometric fusion. A mesmerizing visual performance created with waves of ink.
