MartinHafer While it's rare, I am choosing not to give a numerical rating to this film. It defies rating and is clearly an avant-garde art film--exactly the sort of thing you can't explain in mere words and which probably won't appeal to most viewers. The reason I saw this film is that it was rather inexplicably included with the first showing of the Oscar Nominated Documentary Short program. So, in addition to the five nominees, they used this very short film just as the intermission was called (since the show lasted a whopping 3 1/2 hours!).Instead of me explaining the film at length, my suggestion is you first read the IMDb section entitled 'Story line'---as it explains HOW the film was made. It consists of some non-traditional (i.e, a bit annoying) music is played while monochromatic images dance across the screen in time to the music. It is a bit mesmerizing but also something very artsy and probably mostly of interest to people who like avant-garde things. For the general public, it's probably easy to skip and for the artsy, it's a 'must-see'.
