  EL HIJO / THE SONShort film inspired in a story by the famous Uruguayan writer Horacio Quiroga
• HALF/LIFEHalf of this life has elapsed... The memories, the dreams, the thoughts all mix together forming questions about identity that disappear in the wind, never finding answers. We inhabit a moment in time looking for meaning in new spaces, new realities and new conditions, we make footprints in the sand, memories that will be lost in oblivion. HALF / LIFE is a short film that conveys the feelings and thoughts of a person who has lived as an immigrant of space and time for a long time.
• YO, PIELShort film inspired by the Greek myth Apollo and Daphne and in the poem by Francisco de Quevedo "To Daphne, fleeing from Apollo.
• THE CIRCUMCISIONA man standing in front of the mirror thinking about shaving, he thinks about himself, he thinks in Vincent Van Gogh...
• REM_01Short film that shows in a dreamlike way a journey between two places and moments very distant from each other. Sometimes life seems to stop altogether and at other times it seems to recede.
• MEMORY OF DIVING BELLDiving Bell has long time forgotten in the depths of the oceans. An ancient chant mark his destiny. A call to resurface water to meet his past, and his land; which it is now a cracked, dry desert. As hypnotic songs, voices will guide Diving Bell to the oasis that take it back to the deep sea to be reunited with their origins, and there reborn the world.
