Figs in Motion

Two men become six ballerinas and several horses in a bestial, impromptu corps de ballet. A riff on the imagery of Edgar Degas and the photography of Eadweard Muybridge. Commissioned by the Art Gallery of Alberta as part of their grand reopening celebrations. Featuring original music composed for the film by Bryce Kulak and by The Wet Secrets.

“‘Figs in Motion’ is such an unexpected crowd-pleaser, a slowly developing chuckle - the audience loved it.”- Carl Bogner, programmer - Milwaukee LGBT Film/Video Festival / guest programmer - Ann Arbor Film Festival
