The film is a surreal abstract piece in three movements. The first occurs on the ground, introducing visual motifs and themes. The second lifts into the air, where six spheres become “dancers,” performing a simple ballet that echoes floor‑plan and classic dance. The final ground movement revisits and develops the earlier motifs, completing the cycle.
