Synopsis
This film was made from images originally animated for a dance piece by Rosalind Newman, The Technology of Tears, first performed in New York at the Joyce Theater in February 1987. It is a crude musical meditation on the theme of urban solitude and the cannibalistic invasion of life by the media.
