A Dream of Naming (Penelope Buitenhuis, 1991, 7 mins, B&W): Colliding visions of woman as the Venus, the child, the grotesque, the rebel, the victim, and the poet defy us to examine our own contradictions. This expressionistic film is a visual interpretation of the poem "a dream of naming," written and performed by Judy Radul. Skin Flick (Milada Kovac, 1991, 9 mins): As a textual surface, skin becomes the privileged vehicle for the representation of history. Open Letter: Grasp the Bird's Tail (Brenda Joy Lem, 1992, 15 mins): Sylvester is writing a letter to her new lover whom she met in Amsterdam. Intercut with her feelings of desire and longing are flashes of fear and vulnerability provoked by a paper she is writing for school on racial violence and violence against women. Sifted Evidence (Patricia Gruben, 1982, 42 mins): "Gruben's striking featurette starts like a parody of anthropological film and turns into an hallucinatory subjective account of one woman's Mexican misadventure. Among the most assured experimental narratives of the early '80s, Sifted Evidence makes particularly brilliant use of Syberberg-like front-screen" (J. Hoberman).
