- The Bindlestiff Family Cirkus follows a sex-positive, socially conscious troupe of contemporary circus, vaudeville, burlesque and sideshow performers behind the scenes during their annual Winter Cabaret in Brooklyn and regional tours of the United States and Canada. Step right up as this close-knit, hybrid family of self-affirming "misfits", led by founders Stephanie Monseu and Keith Nelson, seeks to preserve ancient performance and American variety art forms in the modern world.
- A visual poem exploring the beauty of Henna, a tradition shared by women of many cultures and religions across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. Inspired by a trip to Qatar, this film also represents my first sight of Umm Sa'id (Musay'id / Messaied) and the Arabian/Persian Gulf, a true "depaissage" for me as a Jewish woman, who, at the time, was not living as a fully observant Jew. In traditional Middle Eastern culture which keeps a concept of modesty across religions ~ Judaism, Islam, Christianity ~ the body art of Henna, representing beauty for Muslim Middle Eastern, African and Asian women for centuries, thrives. An art most often associated with Islam, Henna actually has a very long and glorious history within the Jewish tradition, as well.
- A mini-documentary short about Jhon Su, a lover of world fashion, and his hip, eclectic boutique, "Ysasu", a hidden treasure in a tiny Parisian street on the border of northeastern Paris' creative and immigrant communities of Montmartre, Barbès, Château Rouge and La Goutte d'Or. Here, Jhon and Ysasu collaborate with French graffiti artist DaCruz in order to celebrate "fashion in the street".
