Awards Ceremony Presentation, Winner Bay Area Narrative Award, Golden Gate Awards, San Francisco International Film Festival, read by jury member Gary Meyer, Co-Director Telluride Film Festival and Co-Founder Landmark Theatres: "A film that draws on the experimental traditions of the pioneers while looking to the future, combining multiple layers of images, sound and narrative in search of a new way to tell stories. The influence of emerging technology, video, and computer interactivity are combined with a playful post modernist sensibility. The film we chose is provocative and original. Guided by a sardonic scientific voice over, some fast forward buttons on the screen, and a miraculous flying cereal box airplane, a young man meditates on the nature of the world he experiences."
