What would a film about nothing look like? This seemingly unpromising premise, when taken up by filmmaker Peter Foley and his brilliant troupe of thespians, Robin Mullery, Michael Pauker, and Aimee Vincent, with guess appearances by Frank Papia and Anna Rotty, becomes the departure point for a cinematic journey through the tragic-comic world of worldly success and abject failure as they relate to, influence, and interfere with, the Creative Process. In a realm where Nothing is of value and Something has no meaning, the most enduring thing may just prove to be the least, and the first shall be the last. Highlights of these madcap artists’ achievements include the frighteningly flawless cinematography and an intricately paced plot which will keep you guessing long after the film is over.
