Donation In memory of my parents, Harry Elser and Cleo Davenport Elser. My parents were two Montana ranch kids from opposite ends of the State. As we moved around the Intermountain West (Dad was a meteorologist with the National Weather Service), they taught us to enjoy each place we lived – from the Missouri River in Great Falls, Montana, to the Rio Grande in El Paso, Texas – the Great Salt Lake Basin, and always – Montana, where it seemed like we had relatives in every town.

Interview with Brainwashed Director Nina Menkes
Cascadian Prophets interview. Why are only 8% of Hollywood movies produced by women, down from 9% 20 years ago? One Hollywood film-maker says the “male gaze” reinforced by a camera angle formula and a subject-object dynamic creates an industry rife with employment discrimination and sexual abuse and assault. That film-maker is Nina Menkes, the Producer and Director of Brainwashed: Sex Camera Power. The movie is showing now in select theaters and it is both disturbing and compelling, as well as uplifting.
