Director: Maya Deren

Starring: Maya Deren, Alexander Hammid, John Cage, Parker Tyler

Year: 1944

Runtime: 15 mins.

Synopsis: At Land is another of Maya Deren’s dream like films. The message which it transmits to and its main subject rests on the idea of the mutability of a personality. Maya said once that this film was made to show people the struggle to maintain the personal identity. The whole film has only 15 minutes, in which a whole life is subjectively described.
