Am I Alive or Am I Dead?

This is a silent video I made for Dana Moser’s Intro To Video class at Massachusetts College of Art in 2002. I shot it on miniDV tape at my parents’ house in Marlborough on a freezing winter day. Enjoy.

    Thrilling, ironic, experimental, faux deep with actually more deepness than one would imagine. A short film on mental health, the inner questioning of a broken psyche and a study on self reflection. A brief preview of the bombastic career as one of the most daring entertainers of this generation.

For Sama

A love letter from a young mother to her daughter, the film tells the story of Waad al-Kateab’s life through five years of the uprising in Aleppo, Syria as she falls in love, gets married and gives birth to Sama, all while cataclysmic conflict rises around her. Her camera captures incredible stories of loss, laughter and survival as Waad wrestles with an impossible choice– whether or not to flee the city to protect her daughter’s life, when leaving means abandoning the struggle for freedom for which she has already sacrificed so much.
