MEMORIAM, 2min,. USA
Directed by Lyla Ruth
My dad passed away recently and I’ll be completely honest here, watching him die slowly from cancer is a hell I would not wish on my worst enemy.
Family and friends ask me how I am feeling, or how I am handling it all. In actuality, the emotions are too intense to verbalize.

THE AIR YOU BREATHE, 4min., Columbia, Music Video
Directed by Sara Lucia Birceño, Leonardo Jurado
The air you breathe is inspired by those couple conversations in which there is nothing left but the breakup. Between disagreements, fights and wounds we try to rebuild memories that are no longer common between two people. It is a reflection on love that can no longer be decided by one party.

A reverse telling of Elvis’ musical journey from Vegas, Nashville, Memphis, to Tupelo, MS where his love of music was born and thrived in its purest form.

FOUNTAIN, 28min, UK
Directed by Alexandrina Hemsley
Building on Yewande 103’s current body of work around embodied advocacy, Fountain blends together dance and digital watery environments to explore tidal cycles of repair, loss, joy and intimacy. This powerful work draws on the symbolism and psycho-geography of water as inevitably linked to Black histories, embodiments, experiences and mental health.
