"LINES"

"'Lines' is a short film written and directed
by Sonja Jasansky. It is her first short film,
produced on a shoestring budget for a
course at UCLA Extension with a tiny crew
consisting of Sonja's husband Andrew
Nawrot, friend Jillian Toohey, and 2
classmates.

It is a quirky little story about a rebellious
teenager who turns out to be quite beyond
just “going through a phase” of defiant
non-conformity. The overall concept of “not
fitting in” was borne from Sonja’s own
memories of high school, which she can now
look back upon with amusement, although there is most definitely a revenge fantasy
element to the film. It is an ode to teen angst, and a delightful imagining of what could
have been if Sonja’s devious teenage wishes had come true."

"TO LIVE IS TO DIE" was produced between October 2002 and July
2003. It then premiered at the end of 2003 at Saints and Sinners Film
Festival 4.

"This film is a suspenseful thriller, where a group of college students
share non-fictional stories. Strangely enough the authors fall victim to
their own tales.

Our story begins with an unknown man reading a book sitting under a
tree. As he reads, the story unfolds and we are pulled into what
appears to be a day in the life of a distraught young woman.

As the story evolves, we are witness to the frustration of the young
woman, unwilling to cope with the unbearable ignorance of her peers.
During the forward process of the story we are stalled by the angst felt
feelings of the young woman towards her fellow students.

Each student is called upon to share a life experience through a unique
form of a writing expression. As each story is shared, within the young
woman, the anger and disbelief continues to grow. She watches on as if
waiting for her own execution.
