In a post-apocalyptic world, six Chase bank workers try to keep some sort of
routine to give their lives purpose, but what of the rest of the world? Two of
the six are inspired to wander and seek a different purpose than the low-level
clerical existence they have been maintaining. Told mostly with movement and
dance, noise, little dialogue and some song, this experimental work has its
lovely and moving moments, but after a while it becomes repetitive which weakens
its power.
