EDGING (Verbal) - Solo
2023 · 15m · Documentary · Romance
A 'very intellectual' dirty talk on online sex work and a remix of 23-different-sources on the lookout for the answer to 'What happens to violence when you are not looking at it?' In this new work, EMIRHAKIN traces the parabola of performativity and gauges the unequal distances of labor in performance art and webcam performances from the focus point of body politics.

1984 · ★ 9
JEWS excavates a lost world of manners and ritual in home movies shot by several Chicago families from the 1920s through the 1940s. Much as in similar found footage soliloquies by Péter Forgács, Jay Rosenblatt and Ken Jacobs, director Roger Deutsch wrings unexpected pathos from mundane traces of the past. Children mug for the camera with dances of the day, upright mothers march their strollers up the avenue, men smoke, the family gathers around the table to light the candles. The bare title cannot help but raise the specter of contemporaneous events in Europe, lending an extra degree of urgency to the film's meditation on disappearance. - Max Goldberg
