Courting Chaos is a 2014 film written and directed by New Zealand filmmaker Alan Clay.

The film is adapted from his book Angels Can Fly, a Modern Clown User Guide.

Courting Chaos is notable for being shot and having finished the complete post production process, with a live music score, in just six weeks.

This was done to capture the spontaneity inherent in the film's subject matter and to achieve this, composer Sherri Chung was composing the film's performance tracks and score from the script prior to the shoot and editor Ranchel Ann Pearl was working on set at Venice Beach from the second day.

The result is a delightfully light and intimate story about the lead character's journey of liberation as she allows the spontaneity of becoming a clown in her life.
