Belle is a subversive fable of old age and beauty. The film was made with a community of 80 - 93 year old women whose participation as actors and advisors shaped the heart of the work.
Belle premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and aired on IFC. Additional screenings include the IFP Film Market, Hamptons Film Festival, Women in the Directors Chair and the Woodstock Film Festival. Belle was made with the generous support of the Jerome Foundation and NYSCA.
