16mm 1.37:1 color sound, 4 minutes; music by Igor Stravinsky; preserved by Bruce Posner and Anthology Film Archives at Cineric, Inc. from camera original; courtesy of the filmmaker. The December 7th attack on Pearl Harbor motivated painter-filmmaker Francis Lee to produce these abstract images evocative of the horrors of war. Splattered wet paint and broken light bulbs allude to the senseless destruction. The potent visuals are reinforced by the driving rhythms of Stravinsky's aggressive atonal music.
