My Aunt's Christmas is a project that took place from a family gathering convened by my aunt after the period of almost ten years.

Despite the pandemic, I decided to accept the invitation because I believed that a meeting with these same people would not be repeated anytime soon. During the celebration, I felt that I needed to record what was going on and decided to borrow a camera, which is the resource I use to interact in certain situations.

This series presents the stages of the production process of that one-night event, so lovingly prepared by my aunt and characterized by the unique elements of her festive and religious universe.
