Textile Workers – Andrea Nappi and Juno Roome (Queens, New York) In this captivating experimental film, a wayward man, led by a scarlet fairy, is transported to a fantastical land. 2019; 8 min. Q+A Session with Directors Andrea Nappi and Juno Roome!
Work Songs – Mark Street (Brooklyn, New York) Combining interviews with observational footage, Work Songs is a highly engaging documentary that eloquently explores how workers in a range of industries attempt to find meaning in their jobs. Director Mark Street dives into the gig economy, automatization, and the decreasing power of unions, and then leavens this bleak picture with finely observed evocations of work places. 2019; 68 min.
