Баския: Взрыв реальности
Self
История художника Жана-Мишеля Баския от первых шагов в искусстве до момента продажи своей первой картины. Портрет художника в юности — заразительный жанр документалистики, особенно когда место становления — Нью-Йорк рубежа 70-х и 80-х на пороге катастрофы. В разорённом городе, где пустые дома поджигали для сбора страховых денег, гаитянский парень в свободном пальто и выбритым лбом выглядел как ещё один полубездомный художник, с которым не случится ничего хорошего
Пустой город
Himself
Рассказ о двух «волнах» независимого кино, накрывших Нью-Йорк в конце 70-х. Представители первой группы кинематографистов назвали себя «Кино никакой волны», в то время как вторые были известны как «Кино в трансгрессии».

Face Addict
Himself
Face Addict tells the story of a unique and unrepeatable experience, that of the artistic community in New York between the late '70s and early '80s, known as the downtown scene.
No Japs at My Funeral
Camera Operator
After Rome 78, Nares made a political documentary—a controversial 1980 video interview with an IRA member titled No Japs at My Funeral—but turned to other forms of art for much of the remaining decade, never realizing projects like a feature script he penned with Gary Indiana.

Men in Orbit
Cinematography
A “sci-fi povera” film shot on Super 8, Men in Orbit features musician Lurie and Eric Mitchell as chain-smoking astronauts in a decrepit New York living room that has been transformed into a spacecraft.
Rome '78
Director
Nares mocks up Ancient Rome by shooting in faux-classical sites like Grant's Tomb and Tribeca's American Thread Building, where a decrepit penthouse loft with a peeling-paint dome serves as an echoey stand-in for the imperial palace. The latter location required ingenuity: Posing as potential renters, Nares and associates asked the manager to show them the apartment, then unlocked the windows on the way out; a few hours later, they broke back into the space, full cast and crew in tow, to shoot the necessary scenes.
G-Man
An exploration of social schizophrenia in which terrorists consult their mothers before planting bombs, and the head of the New York City bomb squad succumbs to his dominatrix.

Hammered
