Silver fish in the projector beam
The film is mostly fish.
In an empty old cinema a shoal of silver fish swims down the violet projector beam, and the screen shows their shadows as the feature. Nobody has asked for a refund.
Field noteFish swim along the projector beam as though light were a current. Their shadows are the film.

Tumbleweed through the concrete wallsDry brush slipping through poured concrete without a crack breaks physics, but the weed stays a weed.
Geese carve green furrows through cloudsGeese leave nothing behind but noise. These plough the clouds in rows, neat enough to sow.
