"Winner of the First Annual San Jose State College Survival Faire film contest in 1970, this 3-minute animated film began as a story Alex Weiss wrote for his kids' nursery school newsletter. Babs Jackson did the cut-out art and I filmed it, one frame at a time. Cost was $10 - $6 for the film and $4 for processing. It brought in about $1,500 over the years in rentals. The Smothers Brothers TV show wanted to run it, but insisted the word "feces" be taken out. We said no and lost out on $3,000. Dumb." - Steve Giordano

OPERA MORTEM is a medium-length film with strong surrealist/dadaist influences where distorted and disturbing images are shown without a real narrative thread which could be a visual dream of death that intersects the story of a suicidal girl and a necrophiliac killer. According to some theological scholars, the film hides a metaphorical evocative code of a satanic ritual. But perhaps David Fleas only followed the manifesto of the Dadaist movement, between anarchist, nihilistic and sarcastic ideas, giving voice to the search for that absolute freedom that art demands.
