Stan Brakhage's "Fifteen Song Traits" is "a series of individual portraits ... all interrelated" (about 29 minutes); other short Brakhage portraits include "Two: Creeley/McClure," "Hymn to Her," "Jane," "Worm and Web Love" -- and for a longer one (54 minutes), "The Governor" (Governor Lamm of Colorado). Also, "Sirius Remembered" (mentioned below) is a reflection on the decaying corpse of the family dog. But for some live animal portraits you might want to look at "The Domain of the Moment."

Just juggling so much, thought I would reach out for some help on at least on of my 100s of to dos! Anything, narrative, experimental, avant-gaurd, structuralist, montage... just that tells the story of a person. preferably SHORT FILMS! But CAN also be features too.
