The God of Day Had Gone Down Upon Him

[This film] begins with the "fire" of reflective light on water and on the barest inferences of a ship... [throughout it tells its tale] through visible textures and forms in gradual evolution...then, by the increasingly distant boat images, birds, animals, fleeting silhouettes of people and their artifacts, flotsam and jetsam of the sea-dead, as well as...flowers in bloom, swallowed by darkness midst the crumbling of the sand castles.
