Dear Ben,

Have you looked at any of Marjorie Keller's films? You might try:

Objection (18 min., 16mm, 1974)
Misconception (43 min., 16mm, 1977)
On the Verge of an Image of Christmas (10 min., 16mm, 1978)
Six Windows (7 min., 16mm, 1979)
Daughters of Chaos (20 min. 16mm, 1980)
Private Parts (12 min., 16mm, 1988)
Herein (35 min., 16mm, 1991).

Good luck,
Robin
