Leilah Weinraub (born 1979) is an American filmmaker, conceptual artist, and the former chief executive officer of the fashion brand Hood By Air.[1] In 2018, she was named a Sundance Institute Art of Nonfiction Fellow.[2]

Biography

Weinraub was born in Los Angeles[3] to an African-American textile designer mother from Compton and a Jewish pediatrician father from Fort Wayne, Indiana.[4]

Weinraub attended one year at an agricultural high school in Israel[5] before returning to the United States and legally emancipating herself from her parents.[4] She later attended Antioch College[6][1] and dropped out of the film program at Bard College.[7]

Career

In 1998, Weinraub met American History X director Tony Kaye while working at the Los Angeles Boutique Maxfield's. In exchange for Kaye paying her Antioch tuition, Weinraub assisted him on his project Lake of Fire.[5][4]

Shakedown

In 2002—at the age of 23—Weinraub began shooting Shakedown, a Black lesbian strip club in the Mid-City neighborhood of Los Angeles.[5] Over the course of 6 years, Weinraub accumulated over 400 hours of footage.[6] The resulting documentary feature, Shakedown, premiered at the 2018 Berlinale[8] and has subsequently been screened at various art institutions and film festivals including the Tate, London; ICA, London; MoMA PS1, New York; Centre d’Art Contemporain, Geneva; True/False Film Festival, Missouri; Sheffield Doc/Fest, England; Images Festival, Toronto; Frameline Film Festival, San Francisco and Gavin Brown's Enterprise, New York.[9] A shorter version was screened as part of the 2017 Whitney Biennial.[10]

In March 2020, the film was released on the website Pornhub, the first non-pornographic film to be shown there.[11]
