Movie Picture

Addicted to Solitude 1999 (6)

I traveled to South Africa to find a white family living on a desolate farm. I wanted to film how they faced the new days of equality after the fall of Apartheid. But I soon lost my way both on the endless roads and in my way. Instead, the film became a story about two very different women who both experienced a tragic loss in the midst of a white community not too fond of the future.

Sheri, A Life of Downs and Ups 2014

This documentary is a fascinating story of a high-functioning woman with Down’s Syndrome. Not only did Sheri finish high school, but she has attained a tertiary degree and is a qualified school teacher. She is also a motivational speaker, inspiring people around the globe. Part of Sheri’s success is her remarkable memory, making her an excellent case study for a team of researchers in London, who are examining the links between Down’s Syndrome and Alzheimer’s disease.
