On Episode 189 of Floating Through Film, we're continuing our series picked by Dany, Experimental Film. This week we're focusing on one of the key figures of Avant-Garde film, Maya Deren! Dany spends the first hour going through some of the main ideas of her film and film theory, before reviewing 1943's Meshes of the Afternoon (1:03:27), 1944's At Land (1:14:51), and concluding with her 1946 masterpiece, Ritual in Transfigured Time (1:28:08). We hope you enjoy!
