| Summary |
First feature length film by avant-garde film maker Albie Thoms. A tribute to the Italian futurist poet Marinetti, the film is also a record of the avant-garde art circles and alternative society groups in Sydney in the late 1960's. The film's bold structure includes long stretches of black and coloured footage interpersed with extremely rapid flashes of photographed footage, culminating with a statement of the "HAND-MADE FILM MANIFESTO" of 1968 |
