The Rink 2015

Branch Brook Park Roller Rink, located in Newark, NJ, is one of the few remaining urban rinks of its kind. This concrete structure is nestled in a public park bordered by public housing and a highway. Upon first glance, the exterior resembles a fallout shelter; however, the streamers and lights of the interior are reminiscent of 1970s roller discos. This 55 minute documentary depicts a space cherished by skaters and a city struggling to move beyond its past and forge a new narrative amidst contemporary social issues.

CINEMA-19 2020

A collection of 190-second short films created in response to COVID-19, commissioned by filmmakers Usama Alshaibi and Adam Sekuler.

Here After 2018

A coral reef molded from human cremains so large it will be seen from outer space, an eco burial site that functions as a 130 acre wildlife preserve, and a mass grave of undocumented immigrants waiting to be recognized: in the US, memorials to the deceased have become as diverse as the lives they represent.

Home Exercises 2017

Using the formal structure of a home workout video, this hybrid documentary and dance film investigates the gestural habits of aging individuals and looks at the physicality of aging as choreography. In its invitation to viewers to move, the film stages choreographies between the mise-en-scène and the home dweller.

Drills 2020

Inspired by social guidance films produced by the United States government during the Cold War, a choreographer restages safety drills, corporate and tech start-up office meditation, and Boy Scout exercises in order to ask what futures we are preparing for.

Trust Exercises 2022

Experimental dance and corporate management workshops intersect in Sarah Friedland’s Trust Exercises, which connects three spaces—a rehearsal studio, a company team-building retreat, and a bodywork session—in which participants learn to move together. In these complementary zones, the business and social worlds merge in the complex orchestration of rhythm and play.
