In this early short, Jerzy Rose and frequent collaborator Julia Zinn pay homage to the grainy, black-and-white world of early Hollywood low budget horror. A woman is wandering the streets of Chicago feeling she is, as Florence Nightingale wrote, "Alone, pursuing the most difficult objects, without a friend in the world." Voice-over narration, another technique often employed in low budget cinema, guides the heroine, eventually, to a séance, led by Madame Churl. Churl shares her ectoplasmic excretions with the woman and she discovers that she is not, in fact, alone. - Stela Jelincic
