Cinema

Bringing films to audiences — and, increasingly, making them.

My work in film spans directing documentary, cutting trailers, and two decades of marketing, publicity, and distribution for theatrical and festival cinema.

  1. Bargaining with the Tide

    Documentary

    A documentary examining redevelopment plans for the Brooklyn Marine Terminal and the community opposition they have generated — weighing affordable housing, environmental impact, and the future of the working waterfront. A work-in-progress screening was held in 2025, with release anticipated in 2026.
