The Joy of Life 2005
A standout from the golden age of essay films. Stunning photography, associative storytelling, and a wonderful disquisition on queer desire.
If you’re in NJ, you can catch a screening of this film (plus two Olson shorts) at the Flemington DIY — 7:00 PM, January 28th.

Sometimes 1994
logging again so you get the idea - this is part of my psyche, i see it a lot, it's on in my brain all the time. the ways in which butch dysphoria can mimic* femme dysphoria. the ways in which i feel resplendent sometimes and just awful others. i keep trying to get my emotions out here concisely and poetically, but like. what am i going to say about sometimes that you can't immediately feel. it's intimate, it's heartbreaking, it feels ripped out of my brain. here we go. <3
