Contents/Summary

Summary
Images from far-flung places such as Japan, Guinea-Bissau, Iceland, and San Francisco, filmed by fictional cameraman Sandor Krasna, are structured around opposites and juxtapositions, and tied together by the voice of Alexandra Stewart reading from Krasna's probing correspondence. Seemingly disconnected, the fable and the essay seem poles apart, yet both are similarly non-linear, striving to grasp the essence of time and memory. The distance between word and image is every bit as close, yet as unbreachable as that between the time traveller and the woman from an earlier age whose image haunts him.
