I'm most intrigued by work that stands on its own terms and invokes dialogue about issues the work presents. Sometimes that work might be labeled "independent" film or video, or underground, or simply art, but it's the individual spirit that I find interesting. It may be narrative or it may be more non-linear, but it carries a distinct perspective and clarity of vision that one person or a small group can achieve. back to film page
