The film acts as a sort of magic mirror to the dance, as McLaren captures and multiplies the grace in the movements of two dancers from the Grands Ballets Canadiens. Margaret Mercier and Vincent Warren move through a pas de deux, dressed entirely in white. Filmed in a studio where both the walls and floor were painted black, the film was lit from the side so that only silhouettes of the dancers appear, multiplied over and over again on the film. The result is a harmonious synthesis of research and creation.
