Live-action, hand-drawn, and computer graphic animation drive this fractured narrative about a female superhero who sometimes has to punch out Batman for being too goody-goody.

Experimental/Animation, 1997   Length: 10 minutes   Director: Emily Breer   Distribution:   Purchase: Emily Breer   166 Second Avenue, #9K   New York, NY 10003 Premiere: Sunday, August 2, 1998 11pm, on Thirteen/WNET. (Repeat: Tuesday night, August 4, 1998 12:30am.)

Breer herself takes on the role of superhero in this animation. She draws herself as a caped hero able to fly through the skies, taking on the world with her super-girl pal and wonder dog. She even puts the boy superheroes in their place. This is a moment of the pure ecstatic id taking us for a ride. Breer creates a world where women rule!
