AK-47s. Bodies falling out of moving vehicles. Biker bars. These generally don’t come to mind when most folks think of family home movies. But these things do occur to Spokane siblings David Ball and Donna Larsen. For them, these are staples in the movies they’ve been filming together for 11 years. On Jan. 7, they premiered their newest film, plus two others at the Garland Theatre. Although they’ve shown their home movies at smaller venues, this was their big screen premiere. “We’re so excited!” Larsen said/Cindy Hval, SR. More here.

Question: Have you ever worked on a creative, collaborative project with one of your siblings? How did it turn out?
