"The slow and subtle repeated rhythms of daily life provide the material for this 12 part film. The pace is slow with the intention of inviting viewers into a more visceral and less verbally analytical state of mind.

In many ways this film reaches back into a kind of personal memory one might recall from early childhood." –Leighton Pierce
