Sage Behr dreams of a Finding Realized Life in the Present. She grew up in Iowa, USA surrounded by a culture of success and constant production. Later as an actor based in Chicago, this took the form of a culture of auditioning for a limited number of roles and the pressure to continually turn her ideas into something consumable on a set timeline.

In 2017, after finishing her undergraduate studies, she moved to Buenos Aires to study clown, acting, and improv in Spanish. Performing outside her context, in a different language and culture, she found herself in the midst of a new world that was simultaneously terrifying and liberating. These moments of intense discomfort and vulnerability in front of a live audience moved her deeper and deeper into the present moment. This enabled her to connect with herself and others in a new way.

She saw things in a different light; and found a new sense of possibility. She met so many people doing their own independent projects instead of waiting for a studio to hire them. Sage decided to produce her own original web series Skype with Sage and ¡Gringa! Despite her limited resources at the time, collaborating on these projects with a community that shared her inspiration, gave Sage a new feeling of abundance and joy in the process while letting go of a predefined goal.

Skype with Sage is an original bilingual comedy series that moves in and out of Spanish and English in a series of Skype conversations about multicultural love, life as a young adult in Argentina and the U.S. and what the actual hell might make someone a happy person. It was shot in Buenos Aires in 2019 and has a cast of 19, including Cris Condomí, Julián Lucero, Fede Simonetti, Eliana La Casa and Ondina Arneodo.
