Overview:
The film invites you to hold your breath and let yourself be transported and transformed by water in the company of curious individuals. At nightfall, they take over a public swimming pool. These bodies of water, immersed in the aquatic mass, transgress the limits of their natural environment and undergo a metamorphosis. They then engage in a contemporary dance that reveals them in a different light. The aquatic environment makes them supple and light, but also vulnerable and combative. This poetic, enveloping, and suffocating mass unites them, separates them, and constitutes them. The film explores the transformation of human bodies when they interact with water—a fluid and adaptable medium that simultaneously offers resistance. It plunges you underwater for an immersive experience that reveals a rare and otherwise inaccessible contemporary dance.

1968-10-28
In Manhattan's Central Park, a film crew directed by William Greaves is shooting a screen test with various pairs of actors. It's a confrontation between a couple: he demands to know what's wrong, she challenges his sexual orientation. Cameras shoot the exchange, and another camera records Greaves and his crew. Sometimes we watch the crew discussing this scene, its language, and the process of making a movie. Is there such a thing as natural language? Are all things related to sex? The camera records distractions - a woman rides horseback past them; a garrulous homeless vet who sleeps in the park chats them up. What's the nature of making a movie?
