[Frameworks] experimental/feminist films with a woman's voice-over narration?

[Amanda Thomson]

A few contemporary examples for the list:

Kelly Gallagher, Pilar Monsell, Mónica Savirón

I also have a few films with female voice over, usually mine.

Re: [Frameworks] experimental/feminist films with a woman's voice-over narration?

[Bernard Roddy]

I was just thinking,why should it matter?  Chuck offers sociological
considerations, a history.  Let's have voices hitherto unheard or
interrupted.  But that's not it for me.  I think, when it's an
authoritative voice, it really hardly matters.  The lecture could as well
have been male.  On the other extreme, there are those voiceovers that
wouldn't really qualify as narration.  It becomes poetry.  Too much for the
guy in me.  I think what appeals to me is a woman's voice handling
something really difficult.

Some films preserved by the Women’s Film Preservation Fund of NYWIFT:

MAKE OUT, 1970, a narrative short showing a couple in a romantic moment with a 
woman’s voice expressing what she is feeling.  The film made by the Newsreel 
Collective was conceived by Geri Ashur, who co-directed, (with Peter

Millet.  The film begins with a woman’s voice declaring: “I had a dream of

Hi all,

I am requesting some film suggestions for a list of experimental, independent,

providing voice-over narration to the images.  

The works can be from any era, in any format: documentary, animation, fiction, 
found-footage, anthropological, installation-based, etc.

Some well-known examples of this tradition would be: Laura Mulvey and Peter 
Wollen's Riddles of the Sphinx, 1977; Michelle Citron's Daughter Rite, 1978; or 
Su Friedrich's Sink or Swim, 1990.

Any examples of woman-voiced films that may be lesser known, or made outside 
EuroAmerican settings, would be greatly appreciated as well!

Thanks so much.

Sincerely,

As part of the 44 Northwest Filmmakers' Festival, we just screened a
feature length experimental documentary by a filmmaker in Washington,
Kadazia Allen-Perry and her film Chronic Means Forever:
http://www.froonfleekproductions.com/chronic-means-forever/
Her film falls very much into this category and is an amazing film.

Re: [Frameworks] experimental/feminist films with a woman's voice-over narration?

[Ann Deborah Levy]

Hi Ben,

My 16mm films all used voiceover with women’s voices prominent.  The most 
ambitious, and definitely off the radar, is:
 
WATERSCAPE: ILLUSIONS, 52 minutes, an essay film that meditates on illusion and 
reality in both myth making and filmmaking in the context of shooting a film on 
a “wilderness” lake with swans.  The principal voices are all women:  the 
filmmaker whose shooting diary provides narration of events and thoughts, a 
scholar on swan symbolism, and three young girls trading fairy tales and a 
poem.  If you would like a link, please contact me off list.  


Other films with women in voiceover that come to mind, but in no way represent 
a comprehensive list are:

Marguerite Duras films:  especially INDIA SONG and her short film CESAREE with 
a woman’s voice describing the ruined city of Cesaree (Caesarea) over images of 
the Tuileries and Paris.


Some films preserved by the Women’s Film Preservation Fund of NYWIFT:

MAKE OUT, 1970, a narrative short showing a couple in a romantic moment with a 
woman’s voice expressing what she is feeling.  The film made by the Newsreel 
Collective was conceived by Geri Ashur, who co-directed, (with Peter 
Schlaifer), the filming of the actors. The voice-over script was created 
collectively by Ashur, Andrea Eagan, Marcia Salo Rizzi, Deborah Shaffer and a 
few other women, and was taken from thetranscript of their "conscious-raising 
group" discussions.

SISTERS!, 1973, Barbara Hammer, director, with the voices of Hammer and Kate 
Millet.  The film begins with a woman’s voice declaring: “I had a dream of 
women where men used to be: building, working, growing strong, building their 
bodies into strength for self-defense.” This film collage is a celebration of 
lesbians.

ALL WOMEN ARE EQUAL, Marguerite Paris.  This may be a stretch because it’s a 
documentary about a male to female transvestite, Paula, whose voice taken from 
an interview out of synch with filmed images of her in her apartment.


And one more addition: 
HAIR PIECE, A FILM FOR NAPPY-HEADED PEOPLE, 1985, Ayoka Chenzira, director, an 
animated film about Black women coping with expectations about their 
hairstyles.  (available through Women Make Movies)

Re: [Frameworks] experimental/feminist films with a woman's voice-over narration?

[lady snowblood]

I.thou is an experimental film (datamosh, so explicitly digital media) 
deconstructing deadgirl narratives in American media culture. I made it to 
unpack watching a lifetime of media made my men putting female characters in 
violent/life-threatening situations as entertainment. The soundtrack is a 
tapestry of samples, so to say it is narrated isn’t accurate.

I believe Jane is heard, only briefly, in one of Brakhage's few sync sound
films, "The Stars Are Beautiful." Jane is the subject of Barbara Hammer's
student film "Jane Brakhage," available from Canyon, and she does the
narration for that.

Also see Chick Strand's film "Soft Fiction."

Re: [Frameworks] experimental/feminist films with a woman's voice-over narration?

[Chuck Kleinhans]

I agree with others that many experimental works by women use a woman’s voice 
or voices.

It might be useful to recall that what was often novel in women’s films in the 
60s-70s era was dealing with a narrator or in documentary experts or witnesses 
who were women.  We might connect this with changing conditions and 
technologies of production that made synch sound recording cheaper and more 
accessible for artisan filmmaking. as well as women artists having a special 
interest in women saying things as well as looking at things.  The modes of 
silent, sound, and synch sound in experimental film also play a part.  For 
example, we see a lot of Jane Brakhage in her husband’s work, but do we ever 
hear her?

 I remember after a screening of a 90 minute early feminist film of the late 
sixties, one of my feminist friends remarking about the guys attending, “I’ll 
be that’s the first time most of them listened to women talking for so long and 
not leaving or interrupting them.”

It’s true: your request covers thousands of films... look up on Fandor, Mubi, 
Ubuweb ...
Or just look up your favorite women makers & see where they’ve used narration. 
They certainly won’t all be female narrators/speakers, but many, many will.

Re: [Frameworks] experimental/feminist films with a woman's voice-over narration?

[Toni-Lynn Frederick]

Hi

What Food Did (1996) has voiceover narration done by a female (me). It was part 
of the Magnetic North touring exhibit—a collaboration between Video Pool and 
the Walker Arts Centre, if I recall. I believe USC and possibly Harvard have 
copies, plus there’s a very thick catalogue for the show. 

Feel free to contact me off-list, if you like.

Best wishes 

TL Frederick
