Experimental Drama

Alicia in Wonderland is a darkly comedic, partially animated empowerment fairytale about 3 women running a dominatrix dungeon and the grad student who accidentally stumbles into their world. Alicia in Wonderland is about wants, needs, fantasies and judgment.

During interviews for Abiola Abrams' documentary TABOO, a recurring theme of the fine line between preference and fetish kept resurfacing. After attending a lecture by AIDS activist Gregg Bordowitz in which he discussed our collective reaction to the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, “What kind of people would torture other people?,” Abiola knew that the time was ripe for Alicia in Wonderland. She wanted to inspire a discure about the othering of "abuse" and "terror", among other things.

Most of the people...
making movies, independently and commercially are not true artists. They are mostly artisans, which are needed as well. However, they are not willing to risk working in new or uncertain arenas or to risk failing. Art is about exploration. Alicia in Wonderland been a fascinating journey to say the least! As an artist I purposefully made this film with no nudity, sex or cursing to see how much our human imagination can create and pass judgment on based solely on perceptions.
