WRINKLE CITY
In Production
Recent polls show that most Americans fear ending up in a nursing home or dependent on strangers for in-home care, and those fears are reinforced by headlines dominated by elder abuse, neglect, sexual assault, medication mismanagement, and financial exploitation. Wrinkle City examines the reality faced by millions of Americans, both patients and care workers, who are often trapped between fly-by-night home health agencies and corporate, assembly-line senior facilities, exposing some of the most egregious cases of abuse while also highlighting the individuals and efforts working to fundamentally change the elder care landscape. more info
Red Book Blue Book
In Production
Red Book, Blue Book: The Language of Politics is a social experiment turned documentary that examines the tribal pull of modern political identity. First launched in 2009, the project presented two books, Rules for Republican Radicals and Rules for Radical Democrats, identical updated versions of Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, and asked participants to react to each, revealing how readers projected radically different meanings and emotions onto the same text based solely on cover and political branding. Now, in the aftermath of fifteen years of social media, outrage cycles, partisan news, high-profile media manipulation, and seismic political shifts in New York City and beyond, the experiment is being relaunched and expanded to ask a stark question: when language itself has become a loyalty test, are we any closer to understanding one another, or have we lost the ability to read beyond our chosen colors. more info
