The Audition

A short film by Celia Rowlson-Hall.

A peculiar magician finds herself multiplied, prompting a playful group dance.

In this modern-day vision of Mother Mary's pilgrimage, a woman crosses the American Southwest playfully deconstructing the woman’s role in a world of roles.

A series of short films following the interconnected lives on Crosby street, New York City.

Si Nos Dejan, a 10-minute short commissioned by Miami’s BorschtCorp, is arguably Rowlson-Hall’s most ambitious piece to date, a string of scenes revolving around a man and woman dressed as though for a wedding, embarking on the strangest nuptial ceremonies that you will ever see.

"We understand this political climate has turned your world upside down," the 1950s TV-ad voice- over tells you. "Underground shelter is your best defense against radioactive fallout." Cue perky music, tap dancing twins, and a ballerina that bakes the perfect croissant. Welcome to your new luxury home - buried 26 feet below. Complete with mini-golf course, dance floor, swimming pool, two jacuzzis, and a thoroughly modern mermaid. "This is reality." That is, until the nuclear siren rings.

A playful 3-minute vignette by American choreographer and filmmaker Celia Rowlson-Hall, Taxi! turns a maddening cab ride into a whirlwind of color and movement. This is the first in a series of shorts that Rowlson-Hall plans to make with her favorite dancers all over New York City – here with Or Schraiber spinning out to music by Mas Ysa.

Chronicling the life of Lay'n Pipe, a 47 foot TopGun Cigarette speedboat, from its conception through the end of human civilization. It's not just a speedboat ride, it's a Miami adventure.
