Artist biography

Lachesis Laval

I am Lachesis Laval, an independent filmmaker. My stories often begin with the everyday lives of women: how they come to understand themselves and decide what comes next amid intimate relationships, family responsibilities and wishes of their own.

I am drawn to the experiences that lead someone to a decision as much as to the decision itself. Unspoken wishes, lingering doubts and small shifts in daily life are what I want to bring to the screen. I want the women in my films to have desires and judgments of their own, along with contradictions and limitations, so that viewers can see them as fully realized people.

I currently work primarily with AI, independently handling writing, character and setting design, image and video production, sound and editing. From the first draft to the finished film, I build the story around its characters, finding a rhythm between images, dialogue, pauses and sound that allows emotions and relationships to unfold.
