Contents:

Summary: Pierre Vallieres. A film of the mouth of the Québec revolutionary, Pierre Vallières, up close, as he talks about Mont Laurier, Quebec history and race, and women's liberation.Summary: Solidarity. A film on the Dare strike of the early 1970s. Hundreds of feet and legs, milling, marching and picketing with the word "solidarity" superimposed on the screen. The soundtrack is an organizer's speech on the labour situation. Like her films "Rat Life and Diet in North America," "Pierre Vallieres" and "Reason Over Passion," "Solidarity" combines a political awareness, an aesthetic viewpoint and a sense of humour unique in Wieland's work.Summary: A & B in Ontario. Completed eighteen years after the original material was shot. After Frampton's death, the film was assembled by Wieland into a cinematic dialogue in which the collaborators (in the spirit of the sixties) shoot each other with cameras.Summary: Birds at sunrise. Birds filmed through the seasons impress the filmmaker with their ability to survive, especially in winter. On a visit to Israel, the birds become a symbol of suffering, particularly of the Jews.
