Erica Russell

A dramatic short based on true events in which a brave mom hides a shocking truth from her daughter who believes she is a princess and mom is a warrior.

Triangle is a dance in which young man and woman entwine in a succession of lithe movements. The association is with the triangle shape, in a human context involving the introduction of a second woman into the mix. This triggers a dynamic of jealousy and rage, though it seems reconciled at the end. Nominated for an Oscar in 1995 it is a wonderfully envigorating fusion of dance, music and animation.

Joyful, androgynous forms shimmy across the screen to the sound of world-beat music.

In order to understand the works and ideas of Karl Marx, this animation takes an ordinary man through several different periods of history, from the cavemen to the philosophers of the world to better comprehend Marx ideals for the proletarian and why the world is an unfair contradiction of all sorts.

The third part of Erica Russel's dance trilogy, as human figures form the letters S, O, M, and A.
