A series of vignettes that begin at the Civil War and end at the Spanish Economic Miracle
is interwoven with 2 separate abstractions
Seeking a Utopia in the Gilbert Islands
A possible escape from the Social order to El "otro lado"
In vignete 1 The train which is apparently going to Vizcaya? offers a
possible escape route (to France?)
In vignette 2 We see an escape from the Oppressive Social Services
that want the change a family (from being hunter gatherers) to fit back into the
state sponsored social order.
Vignette 3 Focuses on a schoolroom in the 1950s and suggests that one can
learn more from daydreaming than following the dry logic of the schoolmaster
Vignette 4 at a Rapid Driving School perhaps makes fun of a girl who only
looks at the inside of a vehicle and gets a rude awakening when she glimpse the
outside of the car
Vignete 5 deals with graffiti removal where the technicians have to think
long and loud about the political meanings to choose which graffiti they will remove and
which they will allow.
