Psychotel

A hotel provides a metaphor for the psyche in an essay film that investigates the uncanny. A dead boyfriend, a spirit guide, and a character who leaves herself behind populate this journey through space and mind.

Unhomely Street

The film follows a female protagonist in a state of fugue following a head injury as she wanders an alienating city underbelly of clubs and free parties. Through recollections of anti-capitalist conversations, historical information about wartime atrocity, and human brutality, she searches for hope in an increasingly frightening, subjective landscape.

The Reynard Diary

The filmmaker skins a fox. The confrontation with death provokes memories and ideas. The editing interweaves these stories in an experiment in the boundaries of narrative comprehension.
