Bill Basquin has been making films since the late 1990s. His art crosses genre and mode in ways that are quiet and sometimes surprising. He likes to work outside, with his hands, in dim daylight. He also likes the lessons that come from working with people, living with a tiny grey cat, and continuing to attune to worlds both wild and cultivated. He has exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, New York; Documenta in Kassel, Germany; and the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. He lives and works in San Francisco, California. The Ride (2000 | 9 minutes | COLOR | SOUND) Sexual suggestion, intimate bravado, and emotional ambiguity underlie this meditative adventure story where the up-for-grabs gender of a small town cab driver is the conversation piece. --Canyon Cinema
