Short Films by Sophy Romvari

Toronto-based filmmaker Sophy Romvari’s intimate, essayistic shorts muse on family, grief, femininity, and humans’ relationships with animals, often with exquisitely touching vulnerability. Deeply personal—she frequently appears in her own films and incorporates her own family’s history and photographs (as in the profoundly cathartic Still Processing )—Romvari’s practice follows in the self-reflexive footsteps of filmmakers like Agnès Varda and Chantal Akerman while reflecting a contemporary sensibility all her own.
