Nine-year-old Yoyo must confront the reality of being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes with her single mother Hannah.

Based on the work of author Wendii McIver, this short experimental film captures the life of Maë, a young girl with a troubled past. As she grows up, a bright star by the name of Armie watches over her. Little does she know, Armie may signal the end of the world.

A young man tries to court his fellow co-worker with his charm.

The result of three years of experimentation, “Lysis” cycles through five different film stocks and a variety of processing methods. A hybrid of optical effects, post-processing analog techniques and digital effects achieves a mosaic of painterly impressions. “Lysis” revolves around themes of the porosity of the self in relation to memory, place and time.
