About Three Women I Met Lately
Documentary by Occitane Lacurie.
From You were Black You were Out
About the black community in Ladbroke Grove and Notting Hill which grew up in the 1950s. “No Irish, no coloured, no dogs" read the rooms-to-let signs in what was already a decaying inner area of London. In the Grove black people had to face the brunt of a crude and brutal racism and a grassroots defence was organised against white racist attacks in 1958, to become part of the more general community resistance. And that strength was reflected in the emergence of several major 'Black Power' organisations. Since the 1960s the vital sense of black community which developed in the Grove has resisted attempts to disperse and weaken the community and in particular the attempt to suppress the annual Carnival - the major Afro-Caribbean event in Britain.

A conversation with the ocean
The ocean is the origin of creation. We simply wouldn't be here without it. In this poetic short film, we explore our relationship with it, allowing the ocean to speak to us, while wondering how we can best respond to the questions it makes us ponder. Will we ever be able to change our destructive behavior towards its environment? Perhaps we can only do so by understanding our relationship with it and remembering the deep connection we seem to have forgotten about.

A Day in the Life of a Consumer
The film shows one day from waking up in the morning all the way to waking up again the next morning. The everyday situations that many commercials are made of, the little dramas that they create and solve through the product or service they sell, are stitched together into one day. This is a film about the everyday in (German, or Western-European) society because the commercials are part of the everyday of most people (everyone who watches television) and they depict an ideal image of society. The film abundantly uses repetition as an editing technique, in visual ways as described above, but also because commercials can be read in different ways. For instance, Brat baking foil shows up at the evening dinner sequence, when an ovendish is put on the table, and again later on in the sequence about going out to a classic concert, because the clip has classic music.
