Mold Maiden (2025)
Character: Young Woman
A young woman lives by herself surrounded by silence and subtle unease. Her days unfold in gentle routines and small rituals yet dark omens begin to appear around her. When night falls, the house awakens and shadows gather. Holy Mary watches from afar as darkness slowly grows. Based on a true story and lived experience, Mold Maiden is a reflection on fear, faith, mental health and the (un)seen forces that surround us.
My Ancestral Doll (2026)
Character: Herself
A private webcam video - never intended to be shared - turned into an emotionally raw video installation. This short film is intentionally unedited, to show the full preparation ritual: the slow and perhaps even banal act of combing the dollβs hair. In this piece, filmmaker Janne Elens works within the lineage of Chantal Akerman, highlighting womenβs/AFAB bodiesβ under appreciated, yet vital, labour.
mud ritual (2026)
Character: Herself
In the summer of 2024, filmmaker and artist Janne Elens retreats to rural Sweden, where she stays on a permaculture farm that, years prior, had served as a sanctuary after she had escaped a dangerous situation. After years of trauma processing, she now decides to close this chapter of humiliation and suffering, on the land that had carried her so dearly while the residue of this traumatic event lingered on her body. This mud ritual arose from a spontaneous urge to give herself deep cleansing, and in doing so, return all the filth and the dirt inflicted upon her back to the Earth.
