Quote:
"[Joyce] Wieland's complete filmic archives were donated to the Cinémathèque québécoise following her death in 1998. With her film distributor, the Canadian Filmmakers Distribution [Centre] (CFMDC), a DVD compilation entitled The Complete Works of Joyce Wieland was produced in 2011 that brings together sixteen shorts and two feature films that Wieland produced in her lifetime. As an unfinished film, Wendy and Joyce is not among these eighteen films, but a rough assembly and some disparate film and sound elements labelled 'Wendy and Joyce' are housed at the Cinémathèque, while her paper-based notes and sound elements are held in the Clara Thomas Archives and Special Collections at York University."
