THE POTTED PSALM

Directed by James Broughton, Sidney Peterson
United States, 1946
Avant-Garde, Short

Synopsis

A soundless mix of story fragments and images. Initially, images of death, a man with a guitar, a soirée. Some images are surreal: an older woman eats a leaf; a headless man pours a cocktail into his body. A woman in white walks toward a building, isolated and in ruins, where a man waits.
