What would make an ordinary woman kill her husband? This powerful documentary is about three battered women who, after years of violence, kill their abusers. These women killed when they felt they had no other options: the police and the courts did not protect them, and society failed to take them seriously. When Women Kill challenges the legal system to confront the systemic and widespread violence that men inflict daily on the home front.

Poster for In Search of Vanished Blood

2012 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Inspired by East German writer and critic Christa Wolf’s 1984 novel Cassandra, about a struggling female artist and visionary. In Search of Vanished Blood comprises six 11-minute video projections streamed around the room through five clear Mylar cylinders, hand-painted with a variety of cultural and historical iconography, which hang in the center of the room. As the Mylar cylinders rotate, the colorful and layered imagery is projected onto the walls, creating a magical environment reminiscent of lantern slide presentations and other proto-cinema experiments in the 18th and 19th centuries

Poster for Written on the Landscape: Mysteries Beyond Chaco Canyon

2024 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Mysteries Beyond Chaco Canyon conveys to viewers the brilliant achievements of the Chaco civilization—many of which are in grave danger today. This new one-hour documentary reveals the astounding reach of the Chacoans across a region of the American southwest nearly twice the size of Ireland. Without modern tools, wheel or beast of burden, these ancient people built ceremonial Great Houses and connected them to places of spiritual power with massive "roads," remarkably straight and as wide as modern two lane streets. The Chacoans' feats have been long obscured in a fragile desert environment—only now to be recovered through beautiful aerial footage and with the new technology of LiDAR (aerial laser scanning) revealing the true expanse of the Chacoans' complex world.

Poster for Creede U.S.A.

2025 · ★ 0.0 (0)

A documentary that explores the unexpected culture clash in Creede, Colorado—a remote mining town that invited a theater company in 1966 to revive its economy. What followed was a decades-long negotiation of identity, values, and belonging, as queer artists and progressive ideas took root in a place proud of its conservative heritage. With personal stories, tense town meetings, and reflections from original members like Mandy Patinkin, the film reveals how this tiny town became a powerful, poignant mirror of America’s larger divisions—and a testament to the complexity of living side by side.
