Exhibition History:

2017, Born in Baltimore Film Festival, Baltimore, MD

A doomed long-distance relationship between the 3rd and 8th floors of an apartment building.




A Letter From the 8th Floor is an found footage short film that began as a fiction narrative –attached below – conveying emotion through inanimate objects. Because this story is set in the 1960's, I use footage solely from the 1950's and 1960's national public archives.
