Plot Summary:An experimental film by Harry Smith which overlaps images and film set to a German opera score.
"Superimposed photography of Mr. Fleischman's butcher shop in New York, and the Kowa aroko, Oklahoma with Cognate Material. The strip is dark at the beginning and end, light in the middle, and is structured 122333221. I honor it the most of my films, otherwise a not very popular one before 1972. If the exciter lamp blows, play Bert Brecht's 'Mahagonny.'" --Harry Smith
