Where are you from? I am from Cincinnati, Ohio. I lived there until I was 24, then I moved to Los Angeles. I am still very much a proud Cincinnatian. Are you a Sundance virgin? No, this is my second time. I had a short film there in 2014 called Funnel. This is my first…
(Originally published on Vice Mexico) VICE: Hi Moisés, tell us a little about your short. Moisés Aisemberg: It came by thinking about what would happen if a piñata went on psychoanalysis to talk about her trauma. I wanted to talk about it to briefly address the topic of sadomasochism and how we focus on that. How did you create…

Hi Piero, the title of the short film that we presented – The Newton’s First Law – is very evocative. How did you come up with this story? Actually the title came at the end. I had already finished editing the short film and were looking for a title, so I ran into the definition…
MYBOSSWAS is one of the most innovative creative studios in Italy. The Turin collective has a very contemporary way of dealing with the visual medium and its production. Each “product” is based on three assumptions: the deconstruction of the concept of “boss” (the “boss” is the project); the use of cross-media or experimental languages; the participation…
What brought you to Berlin? I came to Berlin for my career. I felt that I would have a greater chance in a different market other than Los Angeles. What was the starting idea for the making of Berlin, Berlin? The inspiration arose from the constant challenges faced while trying to survive in this city. So…
How did you develop this interest in hermaphrodites? The film is actually inspired by a series of recurring dreams I had when I was a child. I often woke up after a night in the shoes of a woman much older than me. The feeling of disorientation that caused me I believe it may be…
Cargo really impressed us for the very strong theme it addresses: the “sex-slaves” Why did you chose to tell this story? The need to tell this story starts from the desire to learn something that is under our eyes every day, yet it fades out before our eyes. I wanted to stop by them, capture…
In Il Solengo the figure of Mario really impressed us, perhaps because it embodies a kind of universal archetype: that of the solitary wanderer away from the world. Do you agree? Certainly the figure of Mario hits the unconscious desire to run away, to get rid of everything, to be self-sufficient, as opposed to the instinct of…
