Documentary Collaboration

Romulus Folio × Ben Hall (Director) × Scott Ross (Videography)

Project Overview

Filming began in January 2025, when Romulus Folio existed as an online initiative. The documentary unfolds within the same living movement that shapes the art itself,  not as a record of change, but as a reflection of how creativity, identity, and collaboration continually express one another.

In collaboration with director, Ben Hall, the film centres on artist Angelina Mirabito’s interdisciplinary practice and her creative dialogue with Scott Ross. Through their process, art becomes both mirror and medium, a living presence that speaks to connection, resilience, and renewal.

Ongoing videography is led by Scott Ross, with earlier footage by Samuel Galloway, whose contributions continue to enrich the final edit. Together, their perspectives capture the texture, rhythm, and quiet intensity of moments where art, thought, and emotion intersect.

The Creative Team

  • Director: Ben Hall - With over twenty years of experience in documentary storytelling, Ben brings a deeply perceptive lens to the emotional and artistic interplay at the heart of the project.

  • Videography: Scott Ross - Documenting the unfolding process with sensitivity to gesture, movement, and atmosphere.

  • Contributing Videographer: Samuel Galloway - His early footage informs and enriches the final edit, reflecting the project’s layered creative journey.

Focus of the Documentary

Rather than following events in sequence, the film dwells in the present tense of creation, where art and life merge. It explores:

  • How collaboration becomes a language of empathy and discovery

  • How the act of making art reframes experience and identity

  • How beauty and purpose emerge through vulnerability and connection

At its heart, the documentary reflects Angelina Mirabito’s perspective as an interdisciplinary contemporary artist whose work is informed by lived experience, including the impacts of post-traumatic stress disorder and neurodivergence, yet whose identity extends far beyond them.

These experiences have deepened her consciousness and expanded her creative vocabulary, revealing new ways of seeing, feeling, and expressing the world. Through art and collaboration, she transforms what was once fragmentation into wholeness, creating a life of meaning beyond survival, ongoing challenges and into the evolving art of navigating interdisciplinary collaboration that thrives at the intersection of art, design, and myth.

Here, art is not the subject or the setting, but the living force itself: a presence that holds, reveals, and transforms; the quiet truth through which life becomes a loving canvas.
