Welcome to Leah Land!
  OCTOBER ISSUE

NYHi,

It is so nice to be back in New York! I have been settling in and getting ready to start pre-production on my feature. I also shot a fashion commercial for Fifi Tee which should be available by my next newsletter. Meanwhile, I will be attending a few upcoming local film festivals: Coney Island, Evil City, Last Supper and New Filmmakers. I hope you can join me!

Eternal Flame


Coney IslandWelcome to a world where mermaids dance with octopi, fire breathers rule the night, and the Statue of Liberty knows how to sing. Girls are buried up to their necks in sand while boys do back flips and dazzle dancers perform a puppet show without strings. A circus-themed burlesque music video for Joan as Police Woman, Eternal Flame is the ultimate fire hazard.

Team Queen


Austin Gay and Lesbian logoTeam Queen is a gender-bending, fire-breathing, tassel-twirling music video for queer post-punk rockers "Triple Creme" starring the best of burlesque. Coming soon to a festival near you:
 

Twitch


Last Supper logoA Student Academy Award finalist, Twitch portrays a young girl's irrational fear that her mother's illness is contagious. Twitch has screened in over 200 film festivals and won a dozen international awards. Twitch continues to travel the festival circuit:

  • New Filmmakers
    7:00pm November 28 2007
    Anthology Film Archives
    New York, NY

    *director in attendance*

Unicorns


Reel Women logoA Sundance Lab finalist, Even Unicorns Need to Breathe is a brutally honest portrayal of teen dating violence, offset by humor that is as touching as it is dark. This project is currently in development.
