A note upfront that google limits the number of people accessing it to 100 at any given
time, and traffic has been high, so I ask that:
• if you are here to access the list in more of a reading/learning capacity, please download it (File > Download > [select the format you want to download]) and then
close this tab *OR* download a recent version of it from http://www.katemakesfilms.com/cabinfever/
• if you are here to add movies to the list, please make your edits and then close this tab so you can free up spaces for others trying to access it. There are a few
other notes below about editing this document.
The initial intention of this list was to gather some experimental films together based on moods one might be experiencing while being cooped up. The list has morphed
some, with some great new categories being added to the mix. I loveit!! I do hope that the original goal of feeding emotional needs and fostering virtual connectivity
continues to be the salient purpose of the document.
Also, I ask that we all please keep the entries limited to experimental film and not larger independent films, television series, and studio / commercial works. The focus
here is experimental film and video, artist-made work.
A note on cross-posting: You are totally welcome to add the same movie to multiple categories if you think it fits in multiple categories! I ask that you add mindfully,
and do please consider whether what you are adding does indeed work for that category. I am not familiar with many of the works being added, so I will not be doing
any recategorizing myself. I thank all of you in advance for doing your own categorizing!
I’m trying to keep things alphabetical by title, so if you could add them in being mindful of that, that’d be awesome. (Note: for titles starting with articles like *the*, *a*,
*an*, alphabetize by the second word.) Also, out of respect for community members, if you’re posting movies that contain material that could be sensitive to folks,
please make a note in the NOTES / CONTENT WARNINGS section.
