Folly (1972)

Although Freude was most instrumental in the Bay Area film community through her company Serious Business (1972–83) which rented and sold films by women, especially animation, she made a few films that spoke authentically to women’s experience. Often interpreted as a film that forefronts the repetitive and futile nature of traditional women’s circumscribed activities, the sound track carries the real message: "I won’t stop trying till I create a disturbance in your mind."
