520 Handwritten titles introduce the sections in this film.
The first announces "Emily plays soccer with Amos." With a
soundtrack of a harmonica playing and a dog whining, the
outlines of drawn squares appear. Rotoscope outlines of a
girl (Breer's daughter Emily) and a dog running appear
against a background of geometric forms and magazine text
collages which have been xeroxed. The next title is "Amos
chases a stick," in which the rotoscoped dog does so.
"Frannie's plate and cup" shows the outline of a plate
intercut with the dog and stick. With "Julie plays
basketball," squares, triangles, and circles bounce around
Julie playing basketball. In "Rubber cement," a rubber
cement bottle appears, its brush coming out seemingly on
its own. Felix the Cat runs across the screen, followed by
a brief xerox collage of newspaper and magazine texts. An
airplane flying overhead is both heard on the soundtrack
and seen rotoscoped in the image. A mixture of Felix, the
plane and the dog are roughly scribbled in what appears to
be crayon while the soundtrack consists of random radio
and household sounds. At the end of the film, the outlines
of boxes or squares--perhaps representing a house--travel
across the frame.
