Poster for Mine

2026 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A woman relives one of the worst nights of her life in MINE, a haunting meditation on control, desire, safety and survival. What begins like a familiar home-invasion horror slowly fractures into something more intimate and unsettling, blurring the line between fear and longing. Co-starring Mark Duplass, the film reclaims authorship over trauma, exploring how eroticism and terror can coexist, how trust can heal or endanger, and how safety itself can be a matter of perspective.

Poster for Shedding

2023 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A performance for the Bolex camera in which dimensions of stasis and movement are physically enacted by filming at varying frame rates. A still figure, saturated with light, appears to be highly overexposed. As layers of the image dislodge and peel away it becomes apparent that the exposure is correct, and that actually the brightness is caused through repeated multiple superimpositions.

How does Patti Harrison do it? Patti Harrison’s use and abuse of socials has cis-birthed comedy gold (and bronze: apologies to her ‘Masturbating Dad audition tape’). Congratulations has new lease energy, but instead of lifting white sheets off sofas she’s falling out of a closet, sponsored by Zatarain’s rice, with a Clarityne lodged in her throat. Cue competition. Patti’s even-trans-women-are-funny style of Cartoon Network pilled comedy demonstrates making from thin air (the camera used is actually a laptop?) and jokes aside her stamina for creation would make Felicity Huffman proud.

Poster for Help, I’m a Woman!

1981 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A creative and skilful montage as well as dramatically spot-on sound and music effects are combined in a snappy plot to offer a mordant commentary on the constitutionally enshrined equality of men and women in the GDR. The film was awarded a medal at the 1982 congress of UNICA, the Union Internationale du Cinéma, in Aachen.

What I wanted to explain in my movie was to show the pain that poeple go through when they are not sure of themselves in a relation. In this way, 'Men Make Women Crazy Theory' focuses on the pain of having to face a person whose love doesn't come up to what you have expected. - Zoe Cassavetes
