Composed entirely of decaying nitrate-based archival footage drawn from nearly a thousand sources, this is a mysterious testament to the beauty of decomposition, with a fascinating dialogue between the images and their own disintegration. Accompanied by a soundtrack composed by Michael Gordon. Errol Morris said of the film, "This may be the greatest movie ever made." J. Hoberman of the Village Voice called it "the most widely acclaimed American avant-garde film of the fin-de-siècle."
