- This doc by video pioneers TVTV examines Guru Maharaj Ji, 16-year-old leader of a cult-like new age group, known to his followers as Lord of the Universe. The 1974 gathering at Houston's Astrodome features Rennie Davis and Abbie Hoffman.

- "This melodrama, staged by me and produced with my students at the San Francisco Art Institute, follows the turbulent journey of an aspiring singer as she flees a frigid environment to heat up a tepid career. Hauling along her decrepit mom and an equally cadaverous aunt, our heroine falls prey to a variety of libido-inspired stresses and also has a tragic debut at a disco club populated by repressed, trailer trash and ousted meteorologists. It's a fast moving trip from north to south with many odd detours for the viewer to relish."
- A video collage that chronicles the issues and events that arose in Linda M. Montano's life while she devoted a year to each of the seven chakras. Beginning as a piece devoted to themes of commitment and limitation, the work becomes a fascinating hybrid of art and life, as Montano experiences the onset of menopause, her mother's death, her choice to enter and then leave a convent, the suffering of a stroke, and thoughts of her own death-all within the structural confines of an intense work of art.

- An experimental documentary video project about individuals who have been transformed from so called "ordinary" citizens into activists, Witness To The Future seeks connections that unite people of all cultures, communities, races, and economic classes as they struggle for environmental and social change. Represented are people from three regions of the U.S.: the "downwinders" of Hanford, WA, including Native Americans; "whistleblowers" and white-collar workers from the nuclear reservation; rural African American, poor, and working-class communities in "Cancer Alley," LA; and Latino and Hmong farmworkers and mothers in the San Joaquin Valley, CA.
- A man tells the story of a movie he once saw.
- The short film -edited like a music video- is celebratory of eroticism through bowling scenes and sexually explicit content. Sex Bowl represents, narratively and aesthetically, the fetishes and the promiscuity of various sexual encounters.
- Based on Silvia Federici's groundbreaking book Caliban and the Witch, this essay collage describes the economic shift from a peasant economy into capitalism. The most severe global pandemic in history led to a golden age of peasantry, filled with new freedoms, mobility, diet and rights. The reaction shot came from a ruling class - the church, the new traders, the old kings and queens - who created a system that would erase any trace of the new experiments in collective living, religious freedom and the rights of women. They called it capitalism.
- The Earth Is Young takes as its starting point a series of interviews conducted with Young Earth Creationists, who find evidence of a six-day, six-thousand-year old creation in their reading of the fossil and geological record. The film frames these encounters with depictions of the slow and patient work of young paleontologists, and the strange, shimmering life in a drop of pond water, both of which point toward a world far older and more complex, if no less fantastic. Bordering on a kind of science-fiction film, The Earth Is Young is an essay about the nature of science, and about the tools, both physical and ideological, with which one builds a model of the world.
- A Demon gives a photographer the power to kill wrongdoers by taking their picture.
