Description: The images and sounds that compose this experimental film were gathered during a European journey from Romania to France. It includes footage of the countryside, urban scenes, and the international exhibition of Documenta in Kassel, Germany and the Beaubourg in Paris. Through optical refilming, Fisher orchestrates multiple images in shifting rhythms and patterns, transforming them into a concert of light, color and texture. The soundtrack is reworked to act as a counterpoint to the images.
