"I've Been Afraid" is about the fear of aggression, and those paralyzing forces that allow the body to accept violence.

Director Statement
In the psychological landscape of contemporary fairy tales, my videos and songs put a subversive spin on the traditional mythology of women in film and the psychology of sexuality and violence. Exploring the dark side of female subjectivity, my “feminist fairy tales” focus on friendships, the natural world, and the fragility of existence.
