She appears in various states of dress (pants and lingerie) and undress, with the camera dancing with her, zooming in, pulling out, and moving frenetically to create a kinetic effect. The song on the soundtrack, Breakaway, is sung by the dancer. When the song is finished, Conner repeats the picture and track. At the end of the second play, quick images of the dancer seated are cement spliced onto the film. 520 Singer-dancer Antonia Christina Basilotta is shown performing the title song, then her entire performance, including the sound track, is played back in reverse. Light-smears, intercut rhythmically with black leader, are used to create a stroboscopic effect. 562 Early version. 590 PFA 1604-19-1218. |aCOPY-SPECIFC DESCRIPTION: 1 reel of 1 (175 ft.)
