    “Fallout Food” is a collaboration between two working-class women, produced as a commissioned work for Trinity Square Video’s “Eat” themed program. With similar childhood histories – having both grown up with working-class, single mothers on a fixed budget – powdered milk and boxed mashed potatoes are just two of the memorable items from our “fallout food”-filled kitchen cupboards.

  • Few Good Dykes, A

    “A Few Good Dykes” is an unconventional documentary about the Dyke Uniform Corps, a highly selective organization of women united by their common fetish for uniforms and dedicated to the principles of honour, integrity and discipline. What is behind the desire to make it into the Dyke Uniform Corps: the control? the comraderie? the shiny buttons? This documentary goes behind the scenes to show the surprising, endearing and sometimes troubling reasons why the women of the Corps want to wear the uniform and belong to this cult of masculinity.
