My World
I’m inviting you to run away with me—but not to escape. To run is active, not passive; everyone who runs has somewhere they want to go—a *there* that differs from the here and now. Running is a force for change. The women gathered in this program are all runners in their own ways. They confront oppressive systems, unequal relationships, the discomforts and constraints of growing up… Some succeed in their escape, some don’t, some are still running and reflecting, and some wander between reality and another world. Let us watch these films and run with them—into the realities women live in, and toward the distant “elsewhere” they long for.

The theme of this program is hookup films — stories of young men and women in the city, some by chance, others by design. Each work carries a strong sense of space: homes, subways, laundromats, saunas — online and offline, full of contemporary texture. Sex is the desire to live; when facing death, I feel small, and each night becomes a luxury. At some point, I stopped saying “forever” and began saying “the rest of my life,” though what remains may be only tonight. In one scene, he asks, “Why do you make films?” She answers, “Because I like it.” Because I like it — that’s how simple the reason is for this generation.
