Lawrence Jordan's rapturous live action short contemplates two nude figures in California idyll. They remain physically separated but Jordan's spellbinding cutting and tactile camerawork suggest a loosening of inhibition. Parisian fountains and classical statues signal the deep cultural bedrock for the filmmaker's ostensibly freewheeling portraiture.
