Nemaf Seoul International ALT Cinema & Media Festival, South Korea
The story adopts a new materialist perspective that seeks to broaden the definition of the 'other,' traditionally perceived through a human-centred lens, to include inanimate objects. It aims to honour the value of the other by transforming the instrumental 'I-It' relationship, commonly seen in modern society, into an 'I-Thou' relationship. Through the protagonist's journey to bridge the gap between humans and faceless entities, the narrative explores ways to embrace ruins symbolising chaos and despair, care for the hopeless, and welcome the seemingly impossible with hospitality.

Silent Betwixt exhibition. Eunjo’s dive into the world of video art unravels the tangible connections between humans and the material realm, calling attention to the dynamism of non-human 'actants'. Her work isn't just an ode to vital materialism but a philosophical inquiry into the boundaries of subjectivity, where traditional dichotomies of human/non-human and performer/audience are persistently challenged. Score by Juliet Merchant

MoMA, NYC, U.S.
1929. USSR. Directed by Hamo Bek-Nazaryan. Screenplay by Bek-Nazaryan, P. Folyan. With Hrachia Nersisyan, Tigran, Ayvazyan, Tatyana Makhmuryan. North American premiere. Silent, with recorded score by Juliet Merchant, commissioned by Kino Klassika Foundation. 64 min.
“Today it’s impossible to imagine that there was a time when film studios of Yerevan [Armenia] and Baku [Azerbaijan] could cooperate.… In 1928, after 10 years of the Armenian massacres in Baku, A Home on a Volcano, a co-production of Yerevan “Armenkino” and Baku “Azgoskino” studios, was realized. The protagonist of the film is drill master Petros, who tells the story of the oil workers’ strike in pre-Soviet Baku to his adopted son, depicting the relationship between a big oil corporation and working-class people, representatives of various nationalities. The cast also comprised different nationalities; particularly, the future star of Armenian cinema, Tatyana Makhmuryan, [who] made her debut in this film. This was Beknazaryan’s last silent film in Armenia and first collaboration with Baku” (Artsvi Bakhchinyan).
