Hell Has No Doors
UCLA Student Film, Preserved by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. Surreal interpretive dance of a tormented woman. A woman dances up to a spinning mobile with a diamond necklace hanging off on part and a web at the center. Mesmerized, she mimics the mobile's movemnents in dance. She approaches a clock where every place reads 12, calling out for help. She finds a man, approaching him with desire, kissing him and oral sex is insinuated. The film becomes inverted as she pirouttes repeatly. Back to a positive image, she encounters a door into the heart of the mobile, the web. Sbe closes the door and encounters another version of herself, then again the mobile spinning. She then stabs herself repeately with a knife and screams.

The Dancer in the lead role was Joy Vogelsang-Coppola. Nice short film. Joy did her own choreography. She is the mother of Nicolas Cage, Marc Coppola and Christopher Coppola
