The Living Wardrobe (L'Armari Vivent)

Martí Madaula Esquirol (he/him) | Spain, United States Catalan, Spanish | 2024 | 18 min US Premiere

When Martí arrives in Bilbao for an art residency, his clothes take up only a small part of the huge wardrobe in his room. Gradually, the wardrobe begins to fill up with Martí’s new lover’s clothes, leaving him to face his surprisingly strong feelings about the diminishing emptiness.

Belly of a Glacier

Ohan Breiding (they/them) | Swiss German 2024 | 32 min

Ice is one of earth’s oldest records of time, storing material memories in its air pockets. Here, an ancient ice archive is put into dialogue with a community-initiated project that literally blankets the Rhône Glacier from rising temperatures, and a queer, speculative glacier funeral.

Content Warning: This film contains depictions of animal birth.
