Film Description: "A single room serves as the setting for a lyrical dance through time in this evocative film about family roots and social values. The objects in the room swirl, rearrange and change themselves to reflect the passing seasons, years and generations. As Victorian Christmas fantasies give way to computer-age realities, the procession of objects reaffirms the values that endure the vagaries of fashion and the ravages of time. Film without words." -- National Film Board of Canada (source) |
