Description: A vibrant rush of autumn-bright energy, the vitality of an American landscape and the music it produces before your eyes. A dazzling revelation of the equivalence of light energy, kinetic energy, sound energy, life energy. The rectangular frame a field of forces, within its illusionistic depth a car rushes, its side window(s) offering other fields of force, other movies. In the foreground a harmonica player plays the wind, the rushing movement. The film unfolds spontaneously from premises carefully structured around a road's turning, a river's climax.--L.G.
