558

Film has no standard titles, but a prominent shot early in film is a close-up of the address number "558" on a door to the building in which the film takes place. The number "558" is also written as a title on the film reel. The title refers to the address of the Haight-Ashbury Free Medical Clinic, at 558 Clayton Street in San Francisco.; Film is [apparently] an impressionistic home movie of the early days of the Haight-Ashbury Free Medical Clinic. Shots include details of a psychedelic wall-mural, shots of hippies smoking, and hanging out. Although no medical equipment is shown, address is known to be that of the clinic, and an under-exposed shot depicts what appears to be the clinic's sign.; Pacific Film Archive collection; non-circulating. CBPF.
