My Name is Oona
Thematic Outside Looking In: Coming of Age Stories Curated by Alan Berliner
“My Name is Oona captures in haunting, lyrical images fragments of the coming to consciousness of a child girl. Gunvor Nelson, as true poetess of the visual cinema, uses a series of extremely brief flashes of the girl moving in sensuous negative, separated by rapid fades into blackness.” —Amos Vogel, The Village Voice
