Touch of Recession

Explorations of three bodies in movement

A movement film comprised of three acts, where each dancer choreographs a piece dedicated to a part of their body that they’ve neglected or overlooked. The title 'Touch of Recession’ interprets the Portuguese translation of the word 'curfew' (toque de recolher). The text in the film studies the embodiment of restriction, regulation, and impediment. The visual language is crafted from hand-processed super 8 black & white film, and the score features a modular synth composition by Kari Watson, performed in a quadraphonic speaker array at the Bond Chapel in Chicago, Illinois.

The Queen of Versailles
Rated 6.9 on TMDB
Film, 2012
With the epic dimensions of a Shakespearean tragedy, The Queen of Versailles follows billionaires Jackie and David’s rags-to-riches story to uncover the innate virtues and flaws of their American dream. We open on the triumphant construction of the biggest house in America, a sprawling, 90,000-square-foot mansion inspired by Versailles. Since a booming time-share business built on the real-estate bubble is financing it, the economic crisis brings progress to a halt and seals the fate of its owners. We witness the impact of this turn of fortune over the next two years in a riveting film fraught with delusion, denial, and self-effacing humor.
