About This Movie

Full Circle: The Work of Doris Chase offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a true innovator. The film captures Doris's unique creative process, blending her work with expanded cinema and early computer technology in a way that feels both experimental and deeply personal. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to absorb her artistic vision and the intricacies of her techniques.

This film is part of a niche category that many collectors appreciate for its historical context in filmmaking and technology. Early screenings were limited, which adds to its rarity. Since it’s a documentary, it tends to be overshadowed by more mainstream titles, making it somewhat of a hidden gem among collectors. The formats have been inconsistent over the years, with few releases on home video, which often drives up interest for those looking to own a piece of avant-garde cinema history.
