Duration: 62'


A silent film shot in a week in Bavaria. A man, a woman and their child. Dream revelation, the crystallization of the memory as a possible form of the objectification of Freudian reality. A child catalyzes his Oedipal awareness by means of a chemical hallucinogen which does to the imagination what a developing agent does to film. Like developing agent, this hallucinogen casts light on the fantasy forms of all the mental reproductions." (Informative Notebook 11 of the International Exhibit of New Cinema, Pesaro 1970).
