The Undergrad (dir. Mickey Ray Mahoney, 2003, 39 min.)
The Undergrad is a sexy, gender-twisting parody of the 1967 classic “The Graduate.” This playful celebration of both gender and sexual liberation investigates the choice of deviance, desire, and acceptance. The film follows Ben, who is lost at the brink of adulthood and mystified by his own growing desires as he finds himself in a new life of secrecy, submission, confusion, and confidence.
Women’s Punk Art Making Party (dir. Mary Billyou) 1996, 30 mins. ”Women’s Punk Art Making Party… is sort of a tapestry of clips of DC-girls who were associated with the Beehive Collective. There’s candid footage of girls at the… Beehive intercut with individual pieces featuring the girls – who were each asked to talk about someone they love.
Interpretations of that question include Kerry Roeder’s presentation on artist Cindy Sherman, a feminist stripper preparing for a night of work, an improvised live-animation ‘puppet-girl’ show, and a found-footage-based dreamy music video. Mary’s… documentary gives a unique glimpse into the lives of some creative DC girls trying to find a balance between their creative lives and their public/social lives.” – Tina Spangler, Femme Flicke
