Description: This film includes filmed frames that were hand manipulated with bleach and hand painted. The visual component is constructed by fragments of previous work and the sound is created from fragments of individual improvised noise. It juxtaposes two cultures from an immigrant's perspective. Religious traditions become indicative of a stifling but yet passionate culture which form the basis of memories and dreams of the land of origin..
