SPACE COWBOY
Premiered at TIFF 2024
Joe Jennings, a pioneer of skydiving cinematography, looks back on a lifetime of creating iconic moments in film and television as he attempts to pull off his most ambitious stunt yet, bringing a dreamlike vision to reality.
"Critic’s Pick." Indiewire
"Kind, caring, and plummeting to Earth like the rest of us, Joe Jennings is the hero that will remind you to save yourself.” Indiewire
CLIP FROM SPACE COWBOY
"If you were to find entire dinette sets, automobiles and living rooms — with people sitting in them — tumbling Earthward from the clouds, you might think “Okay, so End Times really are a thing.” But it could also be the handiwork of “Space Cowboy” subject Joe Jennings, a “freefall cinematographer” who’s made a specialty of devising and filming such surreal stunts. Coming a decade after Marah Strauch’s first feature “Sunshine Superman,” about BASE jumping pioneer Carl Boenish (also an aerial cameraman), this new doc provides a thematically and stylistically overlapping companion piece." Variety Dennis Harvey
VICE VERSA CHYNA VICE
Vice Versa: Chyna The documentary Vice Versa: Chyna investigates the rise and tragic fall of the WWF superstar. “Wrestling her and wrestling guys was no different; she just hit a lot harder than guys,” Gunn says in the film. “She was the main thing. She was the ‘Stone Cold’ [Steve Austin]. It was Chyna, like that was a thing.”
