The intensity of the sun devastates the earth, though hope is restored by a young woman and a tree. In this harsh environment, life depends on the spirit of kindness which is expressed by the young woman and the subterranean stream that gently nourishes the man, the trees and the land.
The Mythic Narrative of the Screen-Dance
Fragments of Wholeness unfolds the Hero’s Journey of a young man as he seeks to know his Self in the desert, a place of seclusion, contemplation and of many ordeals. The man unravels his destiny through physical contacts with the elements of the environment and a series of encounters with the sacred feminine that manifests in nature and through the apparitions of a young woman.
The Concept of Process
The screen-dance fragment depicts an atmosphere of contrasts, and the visceral sensations that the environment of the desert generates. The might of the sun, and the danger of global warming, are suggested by footage of the sun as it is superimposed over the dancers in the barren landscape. The film was shot in the Judean Desert by the Dead Sea. It is part of a screen-dance quest that involves many transformations and visionary states of consciousness. Overall, the film project is about process that has so far taken 16 years to manifest. Each fragment is a reflection of that creative process of unraveling, which is still in progress.

Re: Lila Moore… its sounds as if this screenplay is timely to say the least. I for one see the sun as a dark one parching the high desert ground, shrinking what’s left of the waters that irrigate these lands and leave nothing for Mexico… the sun burns unmercifully bleaching the sky white and no rain clouds hang over the horizion… The sun is not our friend in these times.
