The story

What Is Mayhem About?

The premise of Mayhem without spoilers.

In 1983, Abigail Child re‑edited footage from her 1975 PBS documentary Between Times, which followed Minneapolis high‑school girls. She incorporated it into Mutiny, an experimental piece she called a “prismatic rhythmic pinwheel,” abandoning traditional documentary. The film became a key work in the Is This What You Were Born For? series.
