“I think this fear of insanity is comparable to the fear people once had of falling off the edge of the world. Or the fear of heretics...What's happening is that each year our old flat earth of conventional reason becomes less and less adequate to handle the experiences we have and this is creating wide-spread feelings of topsy-turviness.

That's what really separates the power of doc filmmaking from fiction.” ArtRealStoriesFilmFormFictionPureCreatingHappeningsTheaterArchitectureNarrativeCinemaFilmmakingSculptureReal ThingsArt HistoryCulminationCelluloid Author:George Hickenlooper
“I think it's very important to get this stuff on film, not just the behind-the-scenes of the process, but also the interviews with the women. We're going to try to do some on-the-street filming, getting people's reactions to the work, and seeing if we can get some street harassment happening on film so people can see what we're talking about.

“I have an artist background and I got into the field because I heard things in my own head that weren't happening and I wanted to have the control.
