Milk and Venom peels away the layers of a taboo subject — the dark side of motherhood — as two sisters resort to sex, art, travel, exoticism, and romance, in their struggle to escape from, overcome and sublimate the deep wounds inflicted by their vicious, pathological narcissist mother.

Music for the Third Ear goes to the heart of the matter, in this age of civil wars, migrants, and refugees. The intimate meeting in Norway of traumatized refugees from Bosnia and still anguished survivors of WWII and the Holocaust reveals a world of tragically overlapping solitudes where the greatest victim, perhaps, is a child.
