Gund's most recent projects include: Dispatches from Cleveland (CIFF, MSPIFF), a documentary series in five parts that looks at the police murder of 12-year-old Tamir Rice and shows how people joined together to vote out the prosecutor who didn't have their backs; Chavela (Berlinale, Hot Docs, Ambulante) a documentary about the life of the iconic Latin-American gender-bending diva, Chavela Vargas; and Born to Fly (SXSW, Full Frame), a documentary that pushes the boundaries between action and art, daring us to join choreographer Elizabeth Streb and her dancers in pursuit of human flight. She lives in NYC with her four children.
