Bonny Poon’s Beautiful Balance (2016) and I Am Alpha: The Dark Sequel (2025) draw from the eponymous gallery’s circle of collaborators and friends: a shifting constellation of art-world insiders moving between Frankfurt, Paris, and New York. Playing transposed Hollywood narratives, the films straddle camp ad-libs and documentary footage. Behind a fragile economic reality—the commercial gallery—they risk devolving entirely into an unflinching behind-the-scenes snapshot of a chaotic, intimate social milieu.
Directed, shot, and edited by Poon on various phones and a Sony HDcam—with no film crew, no script, and no budget—the diptych unfolds through raw proximity and favours. It reveals the gallery as a relational body: formed through mutuality and reciprocity, but equally through fraught negotiations, love, and the delicate debts that bind people together.
