Dancing With the Devil(1991)
A documentary about music censorship by Channel 4. Is it freedom of expression or are heavy metal artists dancing with the devil? During the satanic panic era of the late 80's and early 90's, there were record burnings, ridiculous accusations of subliminal messages within songs and lawsuits--all aimed at the supression of rock music. Highlights include the senate hearings with Tipper Gore v. the rock music industry, a man who tried to blow his head off from listening to too much Black Sabbath and best of all, some crackpot preacher who plays 'Another One Bites the Dust' by Queen backwards and shows us what they're really saying--("It's fun to smoke marijuana").

Matrix(en)
"MATRIX is a flicker film which utilizes 81 still photographs of my wife's head. It is a film dependent upon variation of intense light changes by calculated combinations of black and white frame alternations with exposure changes.

Silent Sam(en)
Sam is a 27-year-old music-teaching, sovereign ring-wearing, chanting Buddhist. He is the lead singer of an up-and-coming punk band - but he’s also mute ... at least for most of the time. After two unsuccessful vocal chord operations, Sam spends most of his time in pain and on voice rest. Yet, by communicating silently through writing notes, mouthing words and blowing kisses (one for yes and two for no), he still somehow manages to be the chattiest person in the room. As he sacrifices speaking on a daily basis in order to battle through the excruciating pain of singing, Sam finds himself and his voice at a crossroads - give up on his dreams of music or continue singing and risk remaining silent forever? Silence takes its mental toll and his sense of isolation deepens. Whilst exploring new treatment for his voice, navigating work at a door factory and maintaining his loving relationship with girlfriend Tilly, Sam’s journey leads him to have a radical revelation.
