When watching the films that Freyer made I thought it was interesting that the main focus was not on telling a story, but on evoking a feeling. For me this is a difficult idea to grasp because as I am painting and drawing something I am constantly making up stories for each aspect even if I do not tell any one it. I think that is why I found abstract art so be unfulfilling. Never the less her work definatly generated an emotion. I also was interested in the extream differences that were present in the films she made.
