DLP's recommendation

First to recommend

This is a DVD collection of silent experimental shorts from 1943 to 1958 by Maya Deren, widely touted as the mother of underground film culture and one of the most prolific female filmmakers of all time. The collection includes the remarkable "Ritual in Transfigured Time" in which Deren demonstrates the metamorphosis of widow into bride.

patrin's recommendation

Deren is one of the biggest unsung heroes of film, period. In an avant-garde film class in college, she was a pivotal figure, along with Brakhage and others. "Mesches of the Afternoon" is her best known avant-garde film, and it is included in this DVD collection. Check it out - even if it's ultimately not your cup of tea, Deren's work deserves be seen!
