Oh, yeah - if you want to include "structural-materialist film" (a  
somewhat less controversial label), then there are many more examples,  
as Pablo points out with Little Dog for Roger (9.5mm home movie  
footage from Le Grice's childhood). Also Guy Sherwin's astounding At  
the Academy. Stephen Dwoskin's Dirty might count as well. All three of  
those films are available on the DVD Shoot Shoot Shoot, which came out  
of the LFMC retrospective a few years back. Great DVD.

Le Grice's Berlin Horse, too (also available on DVD).
