Court métrage expérimental explorant les possibilités de l'animation par intermittence et des images spasmodiques. Norman McLaren joue avec les lois de la persistance rétinienne dans une œuvre de pure imagination faisant penser tantôt à un feu d'artifice très nourri, puis ensuite à un dessin lent à se former et dont on ne perçoit que des touches rapides et éphémères. Film sans paroles.

Dans ce court métrage, sans parole, les chaises ont le rôle central. Norman McLaren, dans la relation entre les chaises et un personnage humain, montre comment la matière peut se révolter. À quelle condition l’homme et l’objet feraient-ils bon ménage?
