Martina Reese arrived at filmmaking later than many. After an extended career as a graphic designer, she was delighted to discover at 50 that filmmaking was a different kind of enterprise than it had been in her undergraduate days: now, once could make films without heavy equipment, expensive film stock and lab processing, and a large crew. And so, the one-time soccer- and lacrosse-mom turned guerrilla filmmaker. Since her 2010 debut shorts "Vicky Gets Dressed" and "One Boy" (starring her children and their friends), Ms. Reese has steadily expanded her body of work and mastery of the medium with sleeper hit shorts such as "The Swimmer" (2012); "Bathroom" (2016), "Move," "Pity," and "Trigger Point" (2017); and "Big Break," "Slow Me Down," and "Twins" (2018). Two new additions to the Reese catalog, "Floating Man" and "The Librarians," were released in early 2019.
