New York Times Reviews Film Co-Directed by UC Fashion Alumna

When pursuing her fashion degree at the University of Cincinnati, 2010 graduate Andrea Sisson was able to travel to Iceland where she worked with noted fashion designer Sruli Recht thanks to UC's nationally top-ranked

cooperative education program

.

Later, Sisson, from Western Hills in Cincinnati, went back to Iceland having

won a prestigious Fulbright

award allowing her to return where, according to

previously published materials

, she and her husband, Peter Ohs, wanted to make a film as an outcome of the Fulbright grant.

That film, "I Send You This Place," just received a

positive review

in The New York Times.

In addition,

FilmMaker.com

interviewed Sisson and Ohs, who have their

own web site

devoted to the project. A trailer for the film can be found on the project's site.
