Ryan's Life

2004 • 24 min
15-year-old Ryan Harris is panicky due to an acute case of sexual confusion: he's got a girlfriend but he correctly suspects that he's gay. Forced into a laborious period of self-examination due to his inability to reconcile the social norms of high school with his teen hormones (that are marching firmly to the beat of a different, suspiciously suave drummer), Ryan tries to maintain an attitude of "don't ask, don't tell" with himself and with his friends -- but his overwhelming attraction to Luke Trasatti forces him to address and ultimately answer all the questions he's trying to keep in the closet...

Xalima la plume

2004 • 52 min • France, Senegal
As the founder of folk music in Senegal, Seydina Insa Wade had his hour of glory in the 1970s. After his departure for France in the 1980s, where he performed in jazz clubs, Seydina Insa Wade was somewhat forgotten by his countrymen and women. Observing that the new generation in Senegal was unfamiliar with his music, he decided to regain contact with his country and returned to Dakar to record his latest numbers. Ousmane William Mbaye followed this return to the home country for two years, and the friendship which grew up between the two men provides us with a sensitive and highly personal portrait of the musician: through his personal statements and songs, we discover a constantly moving, multifaceted personality.

No Man Is an Island

No Man Is an Island

2004 • 4 min
An older man begins dancing in a public square, oblivious to the laughing gawkers who pass by. He seems to want to engage the attention of a young man sitting on a bench who begins weeping. A group of youngsters mimics and mocks the dancer. He's oblivious to them. The music is a sprightly tune that Fred Astaire might have used as he enticed Ginger Rogers into his arms. And didn't he do a lot of dancing in the streets in his movies? Nobody laughed at him. But, of course, he was only on a pretend street in a Hollywood soundstage. We know this is also a setup. Still, it's embarrassing. They're making public displays of themselves. The man, expressionless, continues to dance. The other man continues to weep. One kid starts taking the performance seriously and joins in the dance as a sort of pas de deux. Both men ignore him. And then it's over. We don't know why it began or ended. Courting ritual or celebration of self, it's unclear. (UbuWeb)
