Synopsis Film Information Screenings Press Compilations

Do you have a secret? "Twenty-One Secrets" is a suite of filmic portraits
by San Francisco visual artist J.D. Beltran based on secrets sent to her
anonymously from all over the country.

Ms. Beltran, who specializes in new media portraiture, found her subjects by
posting a call for subjects on sites all over the internet. In it, she
stated, "I believe many of us walk around our entire lives with a secret we
will never tell anyone, but that nevertheless defines us. I want to do an
anonymous portrait of you, based on your secret. Please write me back at
seekingsecrets@yahoo.com and tell me your secret, as well as as much or
little information about yourself as you wish to reveal."

She never met her subjects, but corresponded strictly by e-mail. After
receiving a myriad of replies from across the country (and many, many
fascinating secrets), she selected twenty-one secrets. In a blind
collaboration, she has set them to moving images, resulting in this short
film.
