As director Francis Ford Coppola once quipped, "Suddenly one day, some little fat girl in Ohio is going to be the next Mozart and make a beautiful film with her little father's camcorder. And for once, this whole 'professionalism' about movie making will be destroyed forever and lead into an art form."

Most of the names familiar to fans of the short form are young male mavericks. That's not the only reason, of course, that makes Italian-born, Canadian-reared artist Floria Sigismondi stand out as one of the most outstanding creators of images, available for viewing online.
