Getting to know Sebas in Tel Aviv in 2023, while studying Documentary Cinema 🎥 Before we moved to Portugal together, travelled through South America and started a new chapter in The Netherlands, we lived in a house next to the beach with 60 roommates🌞 He didnt speak English, I didnt speak Spanish... so with the little Hebrew I was learning in my language course, and by talking (a lot) every single day, we could communicate. He had taught himself Hebrew through self-study and by practicing at work. I’m happy I captured pieces of that time, right in the middle of so many big changes. Looking back on the past three years, I feel nothing but gratitude for the adventrue it’s been, and for the journey we’re still on.

''Basically I'm trying to find a way to combine different things. The movement, the juggling, the surfing and all the things that are connected to it. To try to put it together in a piece of art. Whether it be on paper, canvas or on someones skin.''

If we experience something long enough, are we able to dissolve our learned borders to ultimately be free? BORDERLINE is a short film based on the performance work created by the multidisciplinary artist and former Batsheva dancer César Brodermann. Four performers explore the concept of distance from the point of view of systems. The systems in which we live, being a number on paper, a number in a passport, etc. We must break the conditioning that creates distances between the self, people, cultures, and humanity.
