S.O.S
S.O.S. is a project I put together myself for a documentary filmmaking class the latter half of my junior year. The footage used was taken directly from my cinematographer’s reel that I had made over the course of my academic career. I wrote the script myself from a diary excerpt I had written months prior.
This film was extremely precious to me, as there are things I’ve admitted that I had never spoken aloud before. Even so, I felt it was an important step for me to take as an artist. I believe that by making this film and showing it to my peers and family, they better understood me an artist, as well as a woman with a disability.
“This intimate documentary features filmmaker Lucie Wade as she depicts through poetry the plights of being a disabled artist.”
This film was shot digitally with dimensions of 16:9, and the date of completion was April 2021.
This film was shown at the UM Film Festival 2022, as well as Atlanta Docufest 2022.
