Self
장애란 무엇이며, 정상이란 무엇인가. 탁월함은 어디에서 오는가. 각자의 도전을 돌아보는 패럴림픽 선수들. 한계를 넘어, 가능성을 만드는 그들의 이야기를 만난다.
Of Memory & Los Sures
Producer
Of Memory & Los Sures (2011) is a hybrid animated documentary film featuring oral histories of longtime residents of Los Sures, a neighborhood in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Voices of longtime residents of Los Sures, a mostly Puerto Rican neighborhood, are juxtaposed with images suggesting a recently disappearing past. The film weaves their stories, reflecting unique glimpses into collective memory of a place undergoing rapid changes. Through explorations of urban space, the film unearths fragments of history and culture, and recreates those memories through video, photography, archival documents and animation.
