People in the House, The

“‘The People in the House’ examines the dynamics of a family in crisis and questions the role of religious devotion in the perpetuation of dysfunction. The exterior of the house is never seen, and the family’s anxiety, as is often the case, plays out within the confines of four walls. Filmed with a dreamy, surreal quality, ‘The People in the House’ dwells within the tension between harmony and chaos.” – Liz Czach, Toronto Film Festival Catalogue, Canada, 1995 Selected screenings & awards: Best Experimental Film, The 14th Uppsala Short Film Festival, Sweden, 1995; Special Jury Award, The 31st Yorkton Short Film Festival, Yorkton, SK, 1995; European Media Art Festival Tour, 1995; Toronto International Film Festival, Toronto, ON, 1995; Melbourne International Film Festival, Australia, 1995; Oberhausen International Short Film Festival, Germany, 1995; European Media Art Festival, Osnabrück, Germany, 1995; Ann Arbor Film Festival, Ann Arbor, MI, 1995
