Tezor Tukura

"TEZOR TUKURA" is a short fantasy horror film revolving around a tale of a wicked old lady and her succeeding generations that takes you to an uncanny world of occultism. The film is an effort to bring back the forgotten culture of " putola naach" of Assam as puppetry is used to make this film. The Covid pandemic had obstructed our lives in unimaginable ways but it gave us the time to revisit our roots, NAZNEEN7 Productions' presentation and CHINMOY BARMA’s directorial "Tezor Tukura" is the result of the same. Another strong element of our short film is the "menstrual cycle".

Blame

Follows three combative sisters who visit their mother for the first time in an Assisted Living Facility, which they forced her to move into.

This call is intercut with the flashback of the sisters' arrival, their reminiscing upon the childhood they shared with their brother, Bryan, and their mother's repeated denial of her daughter’s visit through an unsuspecting Nurse Jackson.

Forever Your Girl

Forever Your Girl acts out the loss of childhood innocence and desire through a hypersexualized subject attempting to ride a carousel kiddie ride. Due to misogynoir, the intersectional, racist misogyny directed toward Black women, girlhood is often an accelerated path to becoming an adult where innocence and bodily agency are denied and any attempts to return are simultaneously deemed inappropriate and unobtainable. Crackling in Super 8mm film with the distressed audio of found sounds and synth music produced by the artist and the noise musician C. Spencer Yeh, Forever Your Girl dissolves expectations. While inspired by soft-porn aesthetics, it defies the anticipated imagery and familiar mood of pornographic content. The scenes are similarly disorienting with flashing lights, glamor aesthetics, and slow repetitive actions. (from Ayanna Dozier's website https://dozierayanna.com)

Escaping Modesto

Dissecting George Lucas' early films, THX 1138 (1971), American Graffiti (1973), and Star Wars (1977), based on their autobiographic qualities, this short documentary investigates the advantages and disadvantages of reviewing a complicated cinematic work through the lens of an individual auteur. Does a filmmaker, particularly one whose films are drawn from personal experience, have the right to restrict access to their original works by substituting theatrical releases with director endorsed re-edits?

Invisible World

To apply for an accessible or Crip parking placard, a doctor within the state must approve the application. As part of the application, there are six medical conditions which qualify a person for a placard. These conditions include: (1) cannot walk two hundred feet without stopping to rest; (2) cannot walk without the use of an assistance device; (3) is restricted by lung disease; (4) uses portable oxygen; (5) has a cardiac condition; (6) is severely limited in their ability to walk due to an arthritic, neurological, or orthopedic conditions. Many people with disabilities are included in these categories, and many are not. This film is a record of my introduction to healthcare in the state of Utah. My processing of the appointment and consequential aftermath as a video object serves as a reclamation and assertion for understanding disability and the physical world otherwise.
