Portrait of the American experimental filmmaker Tom Chomont, who resided in Eruope from 1969-1975, before returning to New York.

A structuralist film in which the filmmakers uses the capabilities of the optical printer. The processing of the image surface emphasizes the materiality of the medium, and turns the medium of film itself into a subject. This film even undermines the essential characteristic of the medium – the sequence of single images that suggests movement – by also showing the filmstrip itself. The cinematic illusion is broken, and at the same time it is shown as film.
