Four short films adapted from the poetry of James Broughton: GAME LITTLE GLADYS; THE GARDENER'S SON; PRINCESS PRINTEMPS; and THE AGING BALLETOMANE. Delightful and sentimental, the interludes recall silent cinema, full of playful mime and dreamy reverie. As such, the vignettes offer a welcome antidote to the high-mindedness of most avant-garde cinema.

"Your business is to make something that neither you nor I have ever seen before. Your business is to make a wonderful new kind of mess in your own way." — James Broughton
