Houses In The Fields is a provocative video that documents the plight of farmers in Minnesota who suffer from urban encroachment. The program speaks to both urban and rural residents about what is at stake. Our relationship to food and its origins become murky, as farm land becomes less and less visible. Children will assume that food comes in a box off a shelf and people will forget the taste of sweet corn, fresh picked that day. Also lost, is the spiritual connection to the land itself. The creative treatment includes poetry and song that inspires one to contemplate the finality of fields gone the way of bull-dozers and blacktop.

Ripening is a video that presents a rich tapestry of voices and images on the subjects of ageing and ageism. The video explores the thoughts and experiences of twelve uniquely diverse individuals. They range from 8 to 85 years of age. Positive about their own ageing but concerned about ageism in its many guises, they speak thoughtfully from their personal experience. Tied together by the viewpoint of the filmmaker on the verge of his 40th birthday, the video is visually beautiful and includes excerpts from an interview with Meridel LeSueur. The narrative unwinds like a poem and provides perspectives that will resonate with an audience diverse in age and gender. Ripening is intended to launch discussion and help facilitate a much-needed dialogue about the way ageism impacts all of us.
