Every winter, a small town in Castilla-La Mancha called Luzón transforms into a little hell. Its inhabitants, dressed as devils, venture into the darkness and roam its streets with horns, bells, and smeared with soot. Una dança non sancta could have been just an anthropological documentary.

Blending candid interviews, experimental moments, and reflective narration, this 55-minute personal doc explores what it means to grow up when the people who love you also struggle to accept who you are. Through screen-recorded calls with friends, street interviews, and distant footage of everyday life, I examine my upbringing as a queer non-binary trans person—where love, expectation, and shame often coexisted—among a sea of other stories about adolescence. Anchored by a conversation with a close friend and fellow artist, the film sits in the tension between care and rejection, asking if anyone is even really special—or maybe all of us are.

Two young girls arrive at the home of Ali, a former teacher, for what should be an ordinary private lesson. As Ali’s unsettling mannerisms and an oddly timed joke begin to blur the line between humor and unease, the house itself seems to awaken: echoing with inexplicable, paranormal disturbances. A Private Lesson is a tense blend of horror and drama, where nothing is incidental and every corner hides a quiet, creeping revelation.
In this work, the artists assert the fatal link between genocide and ecocide, exposing the colonial logic of 'taming', inherent in European intervention. Video footage and field recordings of the Birrarung are layered with shredded snippets of a score composed in the 1800s, inspired by the river. By contrast, the soundscape features the voice of Jasper Cohen-Hunter, who recounts the Creation Story of the Birrarung as told by Beruk (William Barak, 1823-1903), the Ngurungaeta (leader) of the Wurundjeri-balluk.
