Okay guys... I need help. I've been looking for a certain obscure documentary for a while now, but I can't remember it's name. Since there are a handful of fans of this perticular genre on this board, I figured that I might as well give this a shot. Here is what I remember about it:
It's fairly new, I know that much. It's no more than two or three years old. They also played a good portion on the syndicated public radio program "This Way Out" when it made it's New York premiere in the summer. The documentary itself is about a Jewish lesbian artist and her dealings with her brother: a fanatical, born-again Christian that lives in some settlement in Alaska. The documentary is shot from the point-of-view of the artist, who also serves as both the narrator and the director.
The reason why I'm looking for it is due to "Kindred Melange", the "modern fantasy" soap opera that I am currently writing with my girlfriend. That documentary helped influence not only on two of the main characters (Sue the computer repairmorph... I mean, woman and Ally the artist), but one of the "cultures" as well (the elves). Our work is not a ripoff by any means, but the infulence is there, like Lupin III and Cowboy Bebop. I'd like to get a hold of it so I can show it to my girlfriend (and so I can have a copy all to myself). Any ideas?
