“Throughout my career, I was really itching to make art that was different. A little more against the grain and unconventional which brings me to my latest project Connie & Sly. Right before the pandemic, I directed an original short that’s unlike anything I’ve ever made. It’s an experimental dance film about two amateur thieves (sisters Connie & Sly) who set off a car alarm & perform a wild, hypnotic dance around the vehicle. Totally wacky…totally absurd. What I loved with this project is that I got to make something that felt a little more like my personality–something a little goofy. Not so self-serious which freed me up creatively. I got to partner with a stellar choreography company, LA-based Whyteberg, as well as composer Bobak Lotfipour who created this beautifully bizarre song from scratch. We’re releasing the film this summer and I couldn’t be more proud.”
