Burning Lies | 2024

This short film was created as part of my bachelor's degree at the Berlin University of the Arts, in the moving image class. In 11 minutes, an Afro-diasporic work unfolds that delves deep into the question of identity. Multilingual poetry in English, German, Kikongo and Lingala weaves its way through the narrative and accompanies the protagonist on an inner journey. In search of a hidden facet of herself, she questions the nature of her existence - in the field of tension between her innermost self and the reality of the other.
