Three friends, including the filmmaker, rendez-vous in Portland by hitchhiking or train-hopping from different cities. After a week of arguments, soup kitchens, brushes with the law, and bad weather, each leaves with a different memory of the trip.

Portland

This collage of found film footage, assembles porn movie, children's instructional film, sports coverage, and '50s Hollywood musicals to construct an investigation of gay men's differing attitudes towards the female body.

Our Gay Brothers

This movie is an attempt to document a place; not only its image as lensed, but its weather, its soil, and its toxins. The organisms in the water and the soil have made their marks on it; even the leached metals in this exhausted quarry pit's waters can be seen in the film.

Quarry Movie

My father's photographic legacy, compiled and transformed into light. His family photographs, his hobbyist pictures of trains and roses, his airplanes and his obsession with birds circling...these images are imprinted onto the film, like a fingerprint or trace. The film is hand-processed and hand-exposed without a camera.

Flight

The Urine Man, a longtime neighbor, agreed to be interviewed but with a great many stipulations. One of these was that he would only discuss his philosophical platform, and would not answer any questions. Nor were we to turn the camera on or off without permission. It became an enormous power struggle. Thus, this eloquent rant of the Urine Man's unique cosmology.
