This is a film inspired by Gertrude Steins Stanzas In Meditation in which the filmmaker has edited a meditative series of images of landscapes and human symbolism indicative of that fieldofconsciousness within which humanity survives thoughtfully It is a film as in a dream this first film in a proposed series of such being composed of images shot in the New England states and Eastern Canada It begins with an antique photograph of a baby and ends with a child loose on the landscape interweaving images of Niagara Falls with a variety of New England and Eastern Canadian scenes antique photographs windows old farms and cityscapes as it moves from deep winter through glare ice to thaw
