GOLDEN, a wordless dance film,  is about a woman’s rediscovery of her intellectual, emotional, and sexual vitality in the face of ageism and sexism. Dream-like sequences reveal the self she has been and the self that she can become. From her musings emerges a passionate self-declaration. GOLDEN is a unique alchemy- from drudgery to sparkling beauty. GOLDEN has been selected by film festivals in the United States, Canada, Europe, UK, South America, and Australia and has won ten awards.  Please visit the Events page for festival information and upcoming screenings.
