some life
“A different angle changes everything - any poolshark, fisherman, boxer, or helpless
wayward bullet could tell you that.”
A woman reflected in unexpected
mirrors: black blondes and Harriet Tubman in Hollywood; a hard woman among strong ones in a Queens hospital
ward; the syzygy of Brancusi, clothespins, and Billie Holiday's smile; betrayal in a stranger's bedroom; the morning
after a drunken one night stand; Harvard and molar-sized diamonds at a Potrero Hill BBQ; and one
very industrious, very tiny little spider on her ceiling.
Directed by Emily Koch, written and performed by Mia Paschal, with lighting design by Curtis
Overacre, some life will show you 13 facets of a black woman in these United
States – change your angle.
