Madeleine+Olnek+Foxy+Merkins+Portraits+2014+VIrFdw2GOb4l

Madeleine talks about The Sundance film festival in the U.S and her premiere of The Foxy Merkins  in Moscow for the Moscow International Film Festival and how culturally challenging ( and safety concerning) it was to be showing a Lesbian movie in Russia today !

So what is a Merkin? What has happened since her last award winning movie Codependent Lesbian Space Alien Seeks Same (which one The Audience award in MQFF in 2012)  ? What is the PROCESS of making an Olnek film?  What is  her philosophy of life and the art of film making ? being a Lesbian and a female film maker today?  and what next for Madeleine Olnek ?
