DECEMBER 2015:

- Isabelle and Noka Productions head upstate to shoot The Great White! This short film is the first of The Writers Trilogy, three short films conceived as companion pieces to songs by the band Late Sea. Isabelle plays the lead in this lyrical and visually stunning film. The Writers Trilogy is a 2015 recipient of the Kevin Spacey Foundation Artists of Choice grant.

From Late Sea's artist statement: “The Writers Trilogy is a hybrid of music, film and literature that will be released in the form of a short album and three short films.
The project is a series of audio-visual reflections on the legacy and literary work of 3 predominant 20th century writers who defined in their work what it means to be a man in the modern era: Paul Celan (1920-1970), Frantz Kafka (1883-1924), and Gabriel García Márquez (1927-2014).
The Writers Trilogy is also an exploration of the relations between the audio and the visual, and an attempt to bring together the hypnotic quality of film with the intensity of a live music concert.”
