These recent documentary, experimental, narrative, and personal films include light-cavalry armor borrowed from a paramedic, the Birmingham Trade Union Resource Centre, a memory that perhaps never existed, a portrait of Barbara Hammer, and an intensely regarded object.

A year before her death, Barbara Hammer asked me to work on a project she’d envisioned based on her correspondence (1973–85) with Jane Brakhage. She also gave me outtakes from her 1974 film Jane Brakhage and told me to let the project take me wherever it led. What emerges is both a portrait of Barbara as a brave and vibrant artist and a complex and nuanced long-distance friendship.
