I will always wait (It will never be) (2005) DVD NTSC, color, sound, 8 min

Genre: Experimental

Keywords: History

In a film that captures Wall Street at a apoint between deconstruction (the shrouded Deutsche Bank) reconstruction (7 World Trade Center) and destruction (the absent Trade Towers), the phrases "I will always wait" and "It will never be" make possible a lamentation for the tragic September 11th event at a time when its physical indications have been upheaved in the midst of urban renewal and the flow of progress. --P.

The Impossibility of remaining (2003) DVD NTSC, color, sound, 18 min

Genre: Experimental

Keywords: Philosophical

The Impossibility of Remaining draws its interpretation from a selection of critical ideas addressed by Maurice Blanchot, Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida. Their complex notions on truth, essence, death and disaster resonate here in a reoccuring scene, where a corpse is cryptically unveiled and re-veiled by the passing over of a moving spotlight.

The Seen and Unseen (2004) DVD NTSC, color, sound, 7 min

Genre: Experimental

Keywords: Environment & Nature, Philosophical

This video surveillance of a cast shadow, seen advancing along the face of a window, is directed toward the ocular phenomena clarified in Merleau-Ponty’s work. As the centered window frame marks the video screen into sections, they are also perceived by us as “anchored” objects. Part of a larger unfolding, these anchors and points of reference are amongst a series of other elements that comprise this perspective. Some, although out of sight (such as the shadow-producing sun) are nevertheless present before the viewer’s eye (i. e. the specter of the tree). --P. G.

Frank V. Gaide

The Men's Room (1988) 16mm, color, sound, 13 min

Genre: Narrative

Keywords: Children & Youth

"... THE MEN'S ROOM, Frank V. Gaide's amusing little tale of a very young man's first trip to the men's room and all the exciting and foreign things he encounters there-among the best: a prophylactic dispenser and a stolen Celtics hat. At a running time of tweleve minutes, Gaide's film was just right, nicely cut and adequately acted and the men's room itself was not merely filmed on location at an actual lavoratory but a carefully constructed set was erected (no bathroom humor intended) so that the camera could freely move among the makeshift urinals and stalls. Clever. It brought back memories, too."-- Mark Griffin

Rosario Garcia-Montero

Locked (2002) 16mm, color, sound, 8 min

Genre: Experimental

Locked consists of five main characters. A man, a woman named Candy, a cat, a bird, and the voice of a woman on the phone. All characters have one thing in common; all are enclosed within their space, some more literally than others. There is a frenetic pace of disconnected sound and imagery in the film providing a sense of disengagement and isolation in each character. Towards the end, there is some crossover, so much so that Candy opens the door to leave.
