Film (1965, 24 min) by Samuel Beckett shows a man’s attempts at escaping the perceptions of others, before realising that his very existence renders his efforts futile. The implacable, continuous and brutal harassment of a girl by a male camera crew is showed in Yoko Ono and John Lennon’s film Rape (1968, 77 min).
