A year of Gentry video diaries

Dir. Anzi DeBenedetto 2022

USA 3 min

Somewhat-monthly installments of an ongoing video diary project. An attempt at identifying the overlap between my tastes and the world's tolerance.

Ressasser (no radar on)

Dir. Samuel Cogrenne 2021

Canada / France 10 min

After losing a loved one, the filmmaker decides to leave Montreal, but misses his connection in New York. Waiting for his next flight, he wanders the streets rehashing the past, talking with people and friends, and dreaming of what might have been.

Resurrection

Dir. Leah E Simon 2022

USA 5 min

This diary film follows a series of conversations that take place between the director and her family. Juxtaposing hi8 shot off the coast of South Carolina with footage sourced from WAVY TV, the film traces recurring themes and an event as it runs throughout the day.

Postcard of a Forest Fire

Dir. Matt Feldman 2022

UK / USA 18 min

A film diary exploring the wildfire epidemic in Colorado and impending desertification. Imagery of forests devastated by fires are contrasted against footage of the urban and industrial landscape of Denver, while the minimal narrative drifts between documentary, poetry, and fantasy.

Running from the Red Sun

Dir. Sarah Little 2021

USA 6 min

A short, experimental, essayistic documentary about an especially chaotic period of my life. This film observes layers of turmoil such as wildfire/climate change, loss, forced movement, the Coronavirus pandemic, and the American political climate of 2020, as well as tender moments of stillness and love.

Times a God Zillion

Dir. Natasha Beste 2020

USA 10 min

A short film surrounding messages from my Mom from the after-life, heroic dosage psychedelic medicine rituals, and clearing spaces of shame, guilt, pain, and grief – home movies, images from the past, present, future, video games, a beloved 80’s film – inspired by personal work surrounding death and communicating with spirit.
