I hope you had a chance to rest, celebrate, and take this marking of time as a moment for reflection. I’m excited to kick off 2026 with some very good news - 

Two films I produced will be premiering at Sundance Film Festival later this month!

BARBARA FOREVER, directed by Brydie O'Connor, will premiere in Sundance’s U.S. Documentary Competition!

BARBARA FOREVER  is an archive-driven exploration of the life, work, and legacy of iconic, pioneering lesbian filmmaker Barbara Hammer.

I first got to know Barbara Hammer’s films shortly after moving to New York City, attending incredible screenings at Anthology Film Archives, The Film-Makers’ Coop, and elsewhere. I fell in love with her work immediately, and it was formative to my education and growth as a filmmaker.

I’ve been so grateful to be able to produce this feature documentary on Barbara Hammer, alongside Brydie and Claire Edelman. It’s the result of years of dedicated work from our fantastic team and I can’t wait to finally share it with the world!

TIME AND WATER, directed by Sara Dosa, will be premiering in Sundance’s Premieres!

Facing the death of his country’s glaciers and the loss of his beloved grandparents, Icelandic writer Andri Snær Magnason turns his archives into a time capsule to hold what is slipping away — family, memory, time, and water.

TIME AND WATER is a universal reflection on the power of home and what it means to be alive amid profound epochal change.

It’s been a tremendous privilege to work with Sara Dosa on many films over the past 6 years, and I am honored to be producing TIME AND WATER, alongside Sara, Shane Boris, and Jameka Autry, and working with many of our past collaborators from FIRE OF LOVE.

If you’ll be in Park City for Sundance, please let me know—I’d love to see you there.

Space Time Films website and Instagram page have officially launched!

BARBARA FOREVER is the first film to premiere from my independent production company, Space Time Films. It’s an exciting and daunting endeavor, and I’m marking the occasion with the official launch of the Space Time Films website and Instagram page.

Please check out the site, and follow the Instagram account to keep up with my work.

Separately, TIME AND WATER is a production of Signpost Pictures - my company with Sara Dosa and Shane Boris. More from us soon!

I look forward to hearing from you - and hopefully catching up at a festival this year.  

Best,
Elijah Stevens
