Four separate movements of figures descending: different staircases, different environments, bodies cascading, a cataract of flesh... metamorphosing... visually regenerating... forever descending.\n \n Queen of the Night \n \n A poem of the night. The predatory male, perhaps a reincarnation of Orpheus, seeks the elusive female archetype which beguiles, mystifies, allures, and finally destroys him. Two figures in a nightscape of coruscating light and colour. A poem of yearning.\n Music by Bill McDonald. Directed by Peter Tammer. 1964-1973, beginning as an independent filmmaker and freelance editor, Peter worked at Eltham Films, Commonwealth Film Unit, and also produced some extremely low-budget commercials.
