Before Need Redressed
Director
After doing Before Need, Gunvor Nelson and Dorothy Wiley embarked on a new creative process. They revisited the film, reworked it and reassembled it creating a shorter new version, called Before Need Redressed. A way to express how the passing time, reflection and accumulating experiences can affect the form and vision of a film. —Ulf Kjell Gür
Coffee
Director
Dorothy Wiley's short film on coffee
Miss Jesus Fries on Grill
Director
"MISS JESUS FRIES ON GRILL is a mysterious striking evocation of pain and the short-circuiting sensations of living in this predicament of death. It is a short film and again the color is fine and sharp as a good paring knife. "Beginning with a newspaper clipping, written in a remarkably detailed manner of a bizarre accident in which a Miss Jesus was killed when a car smashed into the cafe where she was eating. The impact threw her on the grill, heated to 500 degrees.
Cabbage
Director
The cosmos in a cabbage.
Weeny Worm or the Fat Innkeeper
Director
"I first saw these creatures at the Bodega Bay Marine Biology Lab. I was amazed - I lived on this planet so long not knowing I was sharing it with weenie worms. They only live a few places in the world. Victor had been working with them for several years doing DNA experiments."
Letters
Director
Dorothy Wiley films four letters - a letter from her friend, a letter from worms, a letter from bugs, and a letter from her son. She and Bob and Diane Nelson whistle popular favorite classics for the soundtrack.

Fog Pumas
Director
A lyrical, surreal film populated by an assortment of human beings, creatures, places and events.
Schmeerguntz
Director
Schmeerguntz is one long raucous belch in the face of the American Home. A society which hides its animal functions beneath a shiny public surface deserves to have such films as SCHMEERGUNTZ shown everywhere - in every PTA, every Rotary Club, every club in the land. For it is brash enough, brazen enough and funny enough to purge the soul of every harried American married woman.
