Experimental Documentary by Roger Beebe, Gainesville, FL
- Morro Bay, CA is a little coastal town known mostly for Morro Rock, a volcanic plug that sits at the mouth of the Bay. In all the postcards of Morro Bay, the image is framed so that you can't tell that just beyond the edge of the postcard is a gargantuan power plant with three towering smoke stacks. This film tries to restore the power plant to the frame, so that we can start thinking about what the juxtaposition of these two massive objects might really mean.
