NRMarie Antoinette takes us on a walking tour of the Petit Trianon, a charming little farm on the grounds of Versailles. Her commentary includes reflections on life, God, and the peasants, providing valuable insights into the royal character of this important character.
Marie Antoinette
1983
"The intention of Talk, Kids was to videograph the conversations of four young children during an entire day in the country, and then choose the most memorable events for the final edit. In reviewing the footage afterwards, we discovered that the most memorable events were the interactions of the children with the off-camera adults. We therefore put together a tape that illustrates children's fragile and often stubborn re-interpretation of what adults expect of them. The tape is embroidered with vignettes (filmed on Super-8 as home-movies) of the same children at play." -B.A.
Talk, Kids
1989
Imelda Marcos, deposed Philippines tyrant, has moved to the corner of Bloor and Bathurst in Toronto. She remembers it all but regrets none of it. She had everything and now she has nothing. But she has no bitterness in her heart. A satire.
Imelda
1987
It is a tough time for gays and lesbians. There seems to be a spell on these minorities, an evil spell, despite which life must go on. This tape, tells a straight forward story (which in reality is an allegory) about two lesbians and their attempt to cure themselves of the "spell". They are aided by a gay man (which allows for comments on the ongoing rivalry between gays and lesbians), and they find their salvation in the hands of a benevolent dancer/witch in Mexico.
