The result is an allegorical love story which evokes the sophistication of humanity and the fragility of dreams. Conflicting cultural themes are combined in startling ways, drawing the viewer into a world of inspiration and visual stimulation using conceptual reality and stream of consciousness images.” The film was made for thecorner.com.
