A sensualist's dream that follows an androgynous cabaret performer on his search for the Beloved. A black-and-white homage to early sound film, this poetic narrative explores the complexity of being an artist in a world teeming with the mysteries of longing and death by charting the performer's journey through spaces representative of every major art form. Evoking Pabst and von Sternberg, its excessive, expressive visual style allows for the insertion of the androgyne/queer protagonist into an historic epoch of cinema from which he/she was absent or merely inferred: the late silent era. It is also a document of its featured performer: visual artist Rodney O'Neal Austin (the film's conceptualist) and his band Minnie Pearl Necklace.
