This short film was an experiment on dance as continuous movement versus the discontinuous movement of audiovisual language. It explored linear and non-linear time. Linear time is present in the plot: a woman is applying for a housekeeping job during difficult times for her family. What remains to discuss is what constitutes a plot. Contemporary dance played a role without appearing explicitly. Fortunately, when one intention fails, another intention arises destined to fail sooner or later.
