The Red Book is a 1994 American experimental animated short film[1] by experimental filmmaker and theater/installation artist Janie Geiser.[2][3]
Summary
Geiser describes The Red Book as "an elliptical, pictographic animated film that uses flat, painted figures and collage elements in both two- and three-dimensional settings to explore the realms of memory, language and identity from the point of view of a woman amnesiac."[4][5]
Legacy
In 2009, it was named to the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant."[6][7]
