For 1-minute Film Festival by Vortex Cinema, showcased in Tbilisi, Georgia

"Recollection" is a quiet dissolution in the longing of the past. It is a recollection of the sensation of childhood – enigmatic, full of spirit, wonder, creativity, loneliness, and search for meaning and belonging. Memories and images of the past shape us until we notice them. When we recollect and integrate our past, we transcend the force of time and we allow the beauty of our early lives to touch us ever deeper. I see myself in the eyes of my little sister while my history becomes alive and fades away.

For Liva

Birth and death are the most mysterious and powerful events of human journey on Earth. "I AM HERE" is an echo of the presence of a new life – a new body, a new spirit, a new energetic entity, a new dynamic movement, a new being in the fabric of love making a statement of his or her existence. I hear you – you are here, indeed, bathing in the sacred waters. An intimate walk in the mountains with my friend Liva revealed, that along with deep transformation that pregnancy brings to a woman's body there's a beautiful glow and blissful quietness as new life is approaching to be born.

For Prema Foundation for Animals

This cinematic short was created in loving memory of Prema, who rescued and healed many homeless animals in India. I met Prema only several week before her sudden passing, and I was deeply touched to see her every morning riding her bike to Rajbagh beach to feed this family of dogs – a puppy, a mother, a father and a grandmother. Volunteers and friends continued the tradition, and soon Prema Foundation for Animals was established to awaken compassion and love for animals in need and serve them.

For Prema Foundation for Animals

When I first arrived to India, I felt deep sadness to see hundreds of cows, dogs and cats living in the streets in a devastating condition. I learned that over 100 million animals in India don't have a home, sufficient food and medical care and the situation is out of hands of Indian authorities. This short film is inspired by Miranda, Ringo and Prema in an osteopathic Bone&Body Clinic in Goa. Primarily working with humans, they support many living beings with their dedication, healing capacities and loving presence. Over 50 rescued animals live in Bone&Body Clinic in Goa, India, receiving daily care and medical help.

With Gratitude to my spiritual Master, His Divine Presence Adi Da Samraj

One of the Temples of my Master and the warm gathering of many friends and devotees is Da Mantra Cafe in Tiruvannamalai, India. Every year they hold a retreat when the Temple is open to anyone and the Spiritual Transmission of the Divine is very alive. During this extraordinary event, the transcendental happiness is palpable in the eyes of all participants and the Divine Grace is dancing in every detail.

With Gratitude to my spiritual Master, His Divine Presence Adi Da Samraj

India, the land of devotion, chai, madness, poverty, bright colors and open human hearts, once has changed my life. This footage is a part of my video travel journal, capturing ecstatic journey from the Temple of Adi Da Samraj in Tiruvannamalai to Auroville, the concert of Krishna Das. Full of people and happiness the physical boundaries of that small bus were dissolving as we moved down the road.
