Local filmmaker/cinematographer Ines Sommer directed this experimental feature about a woman struggling to make ends meet in contemporary Chicago. By creatively juxtaposing narrative and documentary elements, Sommer raises provocative issues concerning anonymity in the age of surveillance. (2002, 88 min.) Ines Sommer will be present for discussion. “Sommer conjures up more arresting images with digital video than most industry professionals can with 35mm” - Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
