Career

Ben Hozie directed his first film Annunciation in 2011 (released 2014). Annunciation is an adaptation of the early northern renaissance Mérode Altarpiece triptych.[5] The film also features footage of Occupy Wall Street. His second feature film, The Lion's Den (2017), is an experimental political farce about a group of Staten Island radicals who kidnap a wall street banker. His third film, PVT Chat (2020), starring Peter Vack and Julia Fox, premiered at the Fantasia International Film Festival.[6] The film is an erotic drama that has received positive reviews for its unusual combination of film noir, romantic comedy, and bold depiction of unsimulated male masturbation.[7]
