From Freda Freiberg, Melbourne, Australia: Two wonderful films based on still images I can recommend are: Jutta Bruckner's Tue Recht und scheue niemand! Ein deutsches Frauenleben 1915-1975 (Do Right and fear no-one: A German woman's life 1915-1975), which juxtaposes her mother's memoirs with the photographs of August Sander, in an experimental feminist documentary; and La Jetee (Chris Marker), an experimental sci-fiction fiction by a master of the essay-film, constructed out of a series of stills.
