Laid in is a typed note signed H (presumably from her mother Halla, a psychologist who wrote about photography), informing Zoe that the British Film Institute (BFI) has started distributing short films and suggesting that Jo Spence may be able to help and that they may be interested in Zoe's films, which include Nightmare Angel (1986) an apparently unauthorised adaptation of J. G. Ballard's Crash (1973) which precedes David Cronenberg's film by ten years.
