My Name Is Oona (1969)

Schweden / 01. Jan. 1969 / The 1971 Whitney Museum screening certainly happened, but it wasn't the first. It is strongly implied in "A History of Swedish Experimental Film Culture: From Early Animation to Video Art" that the film was screened *somewhere* in 1969 prior to Gunvor Nelson moving to San Francisco in 1969 to teach at San Francisco State University. It also seems highly likely, according to the same text, that it screened alongside the (confirmed) showing of Kirsa Nicholina at Moderna Museet in Stockholm in 1969. Failing that, if a precise 1969 date cannot be found, Canyon Cinema's "Catalog 3" from 1972 confirms that My Name Is Oona was shown at Oberhausen in 1970, prior to the Whitney Screening.
