LINE OF FIRE
Line of Fire was filmed, edited, directed, and produced by Cameron. It details the experiences of professional elite-level biathletes during their racing years, and the abuse they faced. Shot over the course of four days in Winter Park, Colorado, the film blends vérité-style footage with intimate interviews to uncover not only the physical demands of the sport, but also the emotional cost of years of abuse.
OUR TIME
Our Time is the debut documentary by Cameron Kirkegaard, focusing on a group of women who graduated from Grand Junction High School in 1960. The film explores the misogynistic experiences they faced as teenagers, including restrictive expectations, dismissive attitudes, dresscode, and limited opportunities, and reflects on how much has changed since then, and how much has not.
