Sumario:'Maya Deren' assesses both the filmmaker's completed work and her numerous unfinished projects, arguing that her overarching aesthetic is founded on principles of incompletion, contingency, and openness. Combining the contrasting approaches of documentary, experimental, and creative film, Deren created a wholly original experience for film audiences that disrupted the subjectivity of cinema, its standards of continuity, and its dubious facility with promoting categories of realism. This retrospective reflects on the development of Deren's career and the productive tensions she initiated.
