A personal documentary of a boy who enters the world of pre-revolutionary Russia through a family photo album.  Theatrical run: Grand Illusion Cinema, October 17-30, 1997.

DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT
"Album," my first film, and "Tientsin Diaries," my most recent film, share a common approach--use of old still photographs and a fictionalized narrative to bring a lost world alive.  In the case of "Album" the photos are of Russian aristocratic life on a country estate on the eve of World War I.  For me the most resonant moment in the film is when through the magic of montage the boy of the present world and his 1912 counterpart pause to take pictures of each other.
