Ukrainian Maya Deren was a revolutionary experimental surreal filmmaker admired by David Lynch, Helen Mirren & others. Like Harrington & Kenneth Anger who were inspired by her, she attacked Hollywood & was a gestaltist deeply rooted in Kabbalah practices & also filmed famed novelist Anias Nin. This short is protected by the National Film Registry & the beautiful Maya herself is featured in this film about daydreams.
