When Walt Whitman Was a Little Girl
Genres
Overview
As the title suggests, this is a speculative biography of the artistic side of Walt Whitman. Starting out as an ordinary nine year old girl, young Walt is soon catapulted into the world with all her senses ablaze. Combining drama, dance, puppetry, and potato cannons, the film is a sometimes funny, sometimes sad rumination on growing up as a 'sensitive kid.'

Operation Luchador
At the dawn of the Second World War, Nazism was extending its grip over South America. The Golden Angel, a Mexican masked wrestler, was recruited by the Americans in order to flush out the spies of the Third Reich and put a stop to their nefarious schemes. The Golden Angel’s assignments, still classified Top Secret and therefore absent from the history books, even brought him to a pivotal confrontation with Hitler himself. Inspired by the spirit of classic mockumentaries such as Woody Allen’s ZELIG and Peter Jackson’s FORGOTTEN SILVER, the film takes viewers on a unique version of the fight against the Third Reich, joyfully erasing the border between fiction and reality for the viewers who, taken on this unique ride, can’t help but ask: did this really happen?
