Maiko Endo’s Kuichisan (shot by Sean Price Williams and produced by yours truly) will be having its opening theatrical run in New York City starting Friday June 21 at Anthology Film Archives.
If you have missed this incredible film in the past, now is the time to see it.
Check out some the press. And buy your tickets now.
“Easily the most out-there film… densely constructed, fascinatingly mysterious”
Scott Macaulay, Filmmaker Magazine
“something wholly original and true to its own design”
Michael Chaiken, Film Comment

I am so excited to announce my new project, This Working Man.
Starting July 1st, I will be taking a cross-country road trip to make a series of short films about men at work. The project is about practiced motion, kinetic movement, bodies, forms, masculinity, and physicality. Each portrait focuses on one man at work, idealizing the grace of practice and the exuberance of a job well done.
Here’s where you come in. I’m looking to you to help me find some working men that are camera ready.
There are some criteria that must be followed, but basically I’m open to recommendations! Please help by submitting suggestions via this form I created specifically for you.
I can hardly wait to get on the road!

A few of you may have been wondering why Aarne’s brother Lasse was not in NY this past week for the premiere. Well, he was working a different gig with his bride-to-be Heli Karjalainen. The latest addition to the Aatsinki family, born just yesterday!
Congratulations!
