Amid starkly contrasted photography, often startling music and sound effects, and minimal dialogue, a blonde walks through a forest pathway, a hazmat-suited figure explores a ruined factory and fire breaks out in a tenement. Five rooms in five cities: Shanghai, New York, Buenos Aires, Chernobyl and Asunción, Paraguay, with one sequence shot solely in stills. Experimental (what's with those sponges?), non-narrative first work—at age 46—of film-school head Paparella.

Una mujer rubia camina por el bosque, una figura vestida en traje antitóxicos explora las ruinas de una fabrica y un incendio comienza a devorar una vivienda...todo filmado con imágenes de alto contraste, efectos de sonido a veces alarmantes y dialogo mínimo. Cinco cuartos en cinco ciudades: Shangai, Nueva York, Buenos Aires, Chernobyl y Asunción. Debut experimental, no narrativo de Parparella, director de un instituto cinematográfico.
