REMEMBER ME
Isabelle is suffering from a severe eating disorder. One morning she sneaks out for her usual compulsory training and the destructive thoughts consume her. When she lies down, all the emotions come. Sadness, grief, anger. She is hit by memories. Nice memories, from her childhood, but also horrible ones, from the days when she was the most sick. She realises how she is treating herself and decides to make a change.

HOTPANTS
Five years ago, I stopped playing volleyball. Now I want to play again, but I do not. When I used to play there was an expectation to wear hotpants, but I do not want to wear them. By meeting young people who play volleyball, I am approaching the sport again to explore others’ thoughts on the dress code.
