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

Land of Nod
Director
Original hi-8 video to digital, color & b/w, sound, 16 minutes. Persons unknown wait on a street in a large city for something to come their way. The greeting is “are you anywhere?” They float past the infinite set of stairs going nowhere during one day out of several days from 1985 to 1995. Land of Nod is an experimental short documentary shot NTSE in the late eighties and transferred to digital. Nod captures a day of black marketeers in the street waiting for action.
Postcards
Producer
A separated couple try to keep in touch through postcards of typically "American" sights: motels, monuments, parks; but their postcards cross in the mail. Misunderstandings arise; passion subsides; romance fades... Yet the postcards keep on coming.

Internal Systems
Director
"In one of her more minimalist films, the viewer is presented with nothing but a blank monochromatic frame slowly shifting through various intensities of color saturation, flickering / shuttering repeatedly from light-to-dark (and back again) for a duration of 45 minutes. The only hint of information we have to navigate through this complex and difficult film is at the head and tail of the film, in the rolling text "credits" introduced as positive at the head of the film and negative at the end. Technical information such as film stock, film speed, film length, camera lens, shutter, projector, and a host of other data appear on the screen like hieroglyphs of some secret language to be decoded." -Sandra Gibson and Luis Recoder
Restoring the Appearance to Order in 12 Minutes
Director
16mm, color, sound, 10 minutes. The filmmaker performs her solitary act of cleaning. A static camera tightly frames the studio sink, dirty with paint and other residue while the artist engages in a concerted ritual of scrubbing and scraping … a treatise on the over-cleanliness of certain reductivist gestures in history of art making. (1975)
