I Taste Blood

Film is body. Movement is language. Words are blood.

​A collaborative experimental work by poet Lauren Sotolongo, choreographer Samanatha Sobash, filmmaker Russell Sheaffer, and composer Aaron Michael Smith, "I Taste Blood" is an exercise in art-making as political activism -- fusing poetry, movement, sound, and film into a collaborative experiment.
