A gorgeous b&w short documentary on a metalworking plant in Georgia. The industrial situation presents a steady stream of striking images: workers in silhouette as molten metal erupts behind them, a vanishing-point view of people walking down on a street toward a billowing smokestack (as if they are going up in smoke), men “inflating“ their shirts with a high-powered fan. Inside the plant the workers dig and prod while the metal flows like lava. The work is mysterious as there’s no spoken dialogue.
