In 1980, Angelico and her partner Abbey Neidik teamed up to form DLI Productions and produce and direct their feature documentary, Dark Lullabies, [3]about the effects of the Holocaust on children of Survivors and second-generation Germans. The film received international critical acclaim and many awards including First Prize for "The Most Socially/Politically Engaging Film at Mannheim" [4] and "The Most Memorable Film" in Tokyo. [5] The film was included in The Fifty Greatest Documentaries of all Times at the prestigious international Salute to the Documentary, and selected to represent the best of the NFB's Studio D at retrospectives in London and France. In the summer of 2013, it was selected as the inaugural feature documentary at the Stratford Festival Forum. [6] The highly regarded film continues to be screened and broadcast worldwide including special commemorative screening in Berlin [7] [8] and Vilnius. [9] [10] It will be shown at Liberation 75 in Toronto in 2021.

Angelico went on to direct and write award-winning series including The Cola Conquest, [11]about Coca-Cola as a metaphor for America; Black Coffee, [12]about the history and social impact of coffee and Inside the Great Magazines, about the first international media.

Angelico also produced and wrote many successful documentaries including Entre Solitudes; [13]The Love Prophet and the Children of God; [14]She Got Game; [15]Vendetta Song; [16]Canadaville, USA; [17]and Unbreakable Minds,[18] a poignant film that aims to humanize mental illness.

Currently, Angelico is in distribution with Shekinah: the Intimate Lives of Hasidic Women, [19] and most recently Beyond Earth: the Beginning of NewSpace, [20]named by Realscreen as a MipCom Pic for 2017.

Angelico is in production with Reaching for Zion, [21]about the untold story of the relationship of Rastafari and Jews, featuring Bob Marley’s granddaughter Donisha Prendergast and just releasing Shekinah Rising, [22]the second in a sequel about young Hasidic women.

Angelico is currently directing and producing (with A. Neidik) on The First to Stand, [23]a documentary featuring the work of Irwin Cotler and the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights.
