The film combines elements of mainstream cinema, like an entertaining dramaturgy or slapstick-like effects with strategies of avant-garde cinema or video art, like formal and aesthetic reduction of the imagery, extreme short-cut technique and sound experiments. The audience is then left to find their way between humor and seriousness in this strange "genre-hybrid".

There is an mysterious relationship between human and pets. They communicate in a non-verbal way. In the process of communication, they are full of feelings and guesses. This situation also exists in other intimate relationships. In the work, rough handwritings interweave a kind of privacy. The characters in the film are constructed with minimal movement.

Exploring the relationship between sound and picture, this film is inspired by the two lights (twi-light) found inside of film projectors. Experimental animation created by applying both sound and picture directly onto 35mm film. Once the soundtrack was created each individual sound was assigned a specific shape and colour that repeats through out the entire composition. Visual shapes were airbrushed and hand painted onto orange mask (negative film), then printed positive for further rendering by bleaching or scratching into the films emulsion before the final print copy was made. Sounds are made by hand from drawing Spirograph moire patterns onto clear mylar sheets, cut out and then stuck on 35mm film optical sound area, played through a moviola and recorded into a computer for composition. Many sounds are just one to twelve frames long.
