Plot
The documentary leisurely examines the shifting focus of image and sound. It was a hot day in a small town where a mystic radio filled the air. Lives were trapped in the time of the radio play, of the photograph, and of the film. The narrative form is broken, sometimes improvised, and sometimes structured. The radio wave is transmitted from one place to many others, delivering a melodramatic play, the Sea Goddess. The film juxtaposes the time and the memory worlds. The transportation (the car, the ship, the passing plane) in this film is the vehicle that runs through both worlds.
