A critical retelling of a nineteenth century horror story by Edgar Allan Poe, in which a woman is buried alive by her brother.
Ten long takes and a minimal, ‘performance’ style of acting. The soundtrack is fairly dense: voice overs giving different versions and developments of the story, with experimental electronic music by Barbera Winrow. – D.F.
