Lexicon of Experimental Film: Q is for Quixote (1965) Bruce Baillie’s film charts a mythic American journey via complex multiple exposures and found audio. Collaging landscapes, indigenous struggle, and imperialist warfare, he crafts a lyrical lament for a nation losing its soul.

The unidirectional fight variant strips away reciprocity, reducing the victim's agency to enduring physical trauma. In Full Metal Jacket (1987), Pyle's blanket party exemplifies this: pinned and gagged, he cannot strike back against the recruits' asymmetric, collective assault.
