A Walk Into The Sea: Danny Williams and The Warhol Factory is director Esther Robinson's personal inquiry into the truth behind her uncle Danny Williams's mysterious 1966 disappearance after a family dinner in Rockport, Massachusetts. Virtually unknown today, Danny was Andy Warhol's lover, and a promising young filmmaker.

The discovery of 20 never-before-seen films Williams made during his time at the Factory - and whose many subjects include Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick and what may be the earliest known footage of The Velvet Underground - reveals a luminous talent and a stark gap in the historical record. Combined with Robinson's intimate interviews of surviving Factory members, the film gets beyond the icons and quietly dismantles the Warhol myth-making machine, allowing a deeper examination of the human fragility on which Andy Warhol's empire was built.

Virginia Lee Burton: A Sense of Place is a documentary film that explores the life and art off Cape Ann's own Virginia Lee Burton. Considered to be a “Renaissance woman,” Burton was an innovative children’s book author/illustrator, a visionary textile designer who also painted, and sculpted in granite, marble and wood. Her art and literature remain an enduring part of America’s cultural heritage.

The film project provides viewers access to a treasure-trove of archival materials, never-before seen photographs, personal documents, sketchbooks and original manuscripts, which were used in telling the story of the life and art of Virginia Lee Burton. This finely wrought film includes intimate interviews with family and friends and takes the viewer to places on Cape Ann that inspired Jinnee, including her home and studio, Folly Cove, Gloucester Harbor and the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Narrated by Lindsay Crouse.
