LIZZY

(2024)

Lizzy is the result of the days spent in the aftermath of the death of a neighbour, who passed in the house where she had lived out her whole life on the Hillsborough River in Tampa, Florida and who left behind an electric organ addressed to the filmmaker, without a note. To receive it was like a wild riddle.How might one story continue in the hands of another? What powers organize the telling?

Through weaving indoors with outdoors, dust with swamp, celebration with critique, the film traverses binary notions such as self-world, truth-fiction, witnessing-imagining and nature-experience among others.

 Lizzy (2024)

I was another, stepsisters without a mother

a chipped figurine a flag old pralines

what is here 1,000 years from tomorrow

give mad to the comb life to foam

all them notes in an organ

what slithers the grass is it tail or an ass

does it kill does it steal does it borrow

can it muster the shout with a mouth or a snout

is it hope in the deep of sorrow
