LIGHT LICK: DAILY CAMERA
Filmed in Colorado, "Levine’s latest film in his Light Lick series, DAILY CAMERA, is on one level a flickering, ecstatic, and lyrical portrait of Boulder, Colorado. On a deeper level, it is yet another exquisite manifestation of Levine’s quest to merge the fundamental qualities of cinema (light and the arbitrary projection of individual frames) with life itself. This film is not about how the world is, but rather what the camera can turn the world into."

Maria talks about her detention by Immigration, her dreams in prison, and her life in Boston.
One of a series shot without stopping while driving around Boston after dark with the driver talking and driving while I shoot. The DRIVEN series are intimate 2!st century cinema noir portraits.Treasures IV: American Avant-Garde Film, 1947-1986
Saul is part of the new 5-1/4 hour, 2-disc anthology, released on March 3, 2009 by Image Entertainment, samples an array of film types and styles, from abstract animation to documentary and balances acknowledged classics with rediscoveries. The films are drawn from the preservation work of five of America's foremost avant-garde archives—the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Anthology Film Archives, the Museum of Modern Art, the New York Public Library, and the Pacific Film Archive. None of the titles has been available before on good-quality video in the United States. Each artist is represented by one work.
