A tribute to the poet Harry Hooton, the film is 'an exploration of Hooton's philosophy, in which he advocated a state of Anarcho-technology: a liberation of man through the perfection of technology, a fulfillment through a new involvement with matter: machines, materials of art and science, rather than the continuing incestuous preoccupation of Man with Man, as practised in politics, psychology and most contemporary literature and cinema. He held that the human situation was exhausted as subject matter for the arts'. (Source: Promotional flyer Canberra season, Centre Cinema, 1 November 1971)
