The original material of this film triptych (which was later transferred to one 16mm film stripe) was an almost burnt print of 'Pather Panchali' by Satyajit Ray. The American artist Owen O'Toole sent this film to the members of Alte Kinder asking them to react on it artistically - the beginning of a transatlantic cooperation of filmmakers. The Bonn-based artists group Schmelzdahin created the third and final part of this game of visual associations.
