Description

A student film depicting 'motion' - it begins with a long static shot of an old man's face, followed by scenes of churning water, falling rain, and large machines at work. School children are seen on a merry-go-round, and there are scenes in a Colgate toothpaste factory. Other images include a telephone being dialled, sparks flying and children on swings. The film ends with an abstract animation sequence.
