"A delightful cartoon from John Pill. … a bouncy rhythmic 3 minutes of abstract animation that alternates an active collection of purple pills with speeded up shots of running water and billowing clouds, a visual combination that actually manages to leave the viewer euphoric." [Michael Walsh, "Student film mood: Calmness supplants revolution," ca. 1973 article]; "(Filmmaker’s first animated film, shot in Reversal Negative B & W.) The film is based on some verses by KABIR (1398-1518), the poet-saint who lived in the East." [Spring Arts Festival, March 11-April 8, S.F.U. Film Workshop Productions 1973, program]
