I Know How She Feels
Through a hybridization of 35mm footage, digital footage, and scanned VHS, this film seeks to explore the intersections of sex, queerness, elderly companionship and isolation. I am an elderly companion, sex worker, filmmaker, and singer. I strive to contextualize an identity that is wholly and vibrant. Through an exploration into geriatric and affirmed queerness, I captured moments of daily life. This experimental video has an additional photo essay and written thesis to support its core.
