  "description": "A kinetic poster in the Bauhaus manner, printed in primary inks on warm ivory paper with a fine grain and small registration marks. A red circle and a black triangle fall, rebound and chase each other around a cobalt spring and a yellow doorway. After a beat of anticipation the four shapes settle into a single architectural heart that holds to the last frame. There is no text, and the film has no settings.",
