- Summary:
- "This comprehensive collection covers her origins as a student filmmaker at University of British Columbia in the early 1980s, her maturation as an artist concerned with figure and landscape, and her triumphant return to filmmaking in the 2010s. Massarella's ecstatic, poetic, ecofeminist cinema explores the relationship between figure and setting, between word and image, between material fact and evanescent experience." - https://www.blackzero.ca/products/green-dreams?pr_prod_strat=jac&pr_rec_id=edf5918d9&pr_rec_pid=8804238491933&pr_ref_pid=8804250222877&pr_seq=uniform.
