Photo Booth
Production Design
Outraged by the latest bombing of Gaza, Palestinian queer activists Hamza and Walid recruit queer novelist Jean Genet to help them sabotage the Eurovision song contest in Jericho. Their method? Secure the collaboration of Buddy and Pedro, Toronto's famous gay penguins... The emergence of queer BDS (boycott, divestment, sanctions) as a dynamic Palestinian-led global movement is brought to vivid life through interviews and actions, opera and agitprop, protests and pranks. Recounting fifteen years of passionate activism in Toronto and worldwide, Photo Booth juxtaposes a surreal operatic narrative with documentary scenes that explore pride and pink-washing, gay soldiers and homo-nationalism, Queers Against Israeli Apartheid, and the accelerating weaponization of anti-Semitism.
The Problem with Lady Werewolves
Production Designer
Two young women survive a vicious attack and begin to see themselves differently, believing they might be werewolves.
The Drop-In
Production Design
On a night like any other, Joelle is closing up her hair salon when a mysterious visitor appears asking too many questions about her citizenship.
Clown Face
Production Design
Ah, to see ourselves as others see us. Michael's mid-life crisis was a flame out. Left his wife. Bought a Porsche (used). Now, lonely and looking to make amends, he's seeking forgiveness and counsel from his angry daughter. Laurie sees right though him.
