Summary :

The image is divided into three "Frame" which appear in the corners or in the centre of the image according to a cycle. Each represents a temporal space, the metaphor of an awareness in 3 historical phases.

- The first frame appears on the image's left. We see a landscape of a desert which is dimly illuminated by a sunrise (30 sec.).

- The second frame apperas next to the first in the center of the image. A woman is standing in the same landscape trying to advance to the Frame. Rhe ground receded under her feet and brought her back 3 times. (1 min).

- And then, the second frame disappear while another one settles on the right of the image. A woman is rushing, runing, jumping. Her jump is stopped by the frame. She goes back and starts again. (1 min).

- the third frame disappears. We still see the first one with its desert landscape in which occurs a woman who is rushing.

The sound grows by leaps.

The frame is narrow.
Always.
This is in the nature of things, it was reapeted.
She believed it, still believes it, almost always.
Almost.
So she decides to try to believe that it could be otherwise.
The landscape precedes her, propels her and then retreats under her feet.
So she decides to believe that it should be otherwise.
She precedes the landscape, propels, thenbumps against the frame.
So, she decides that it will be as it should be.
Out of frame.e is putting her hands on the ground and make a whell that leads her out of the frame (1 min).
