Distributed in the United States by the International Film Bureau Inc of Chicago, Illinois - the film was originally made by FWU Institut für Film und Bild in Wissenschaft und Unterricht in Grünwald, Germany.
Opening credits (0:08). Illustration of retro, late 1960s movie camera and tv set (0:25). Illustration of photoelectric cell, meter, battery demonstrating photo effect, interaction between lights and the resistance of a semiconductor - light changes as the arrow on the meter oscillates (0:47). Illustration of light meter, moves around image on screen to detect rate of bright and dark light (1:43). Light meter records light on sepia-tone image of perhaps 1930s automobile in empty field (2:05). White curve appears under image, records deflection of the pointer the light intensity of the image (2:21). Paint brush follows the line to create abstract recreation of image, camera zooms out to reveal original photo made up of black and white stripes (2:41). Car from original image slowly movies, cloud of exhaust comes out of back pipe as it drives along rural tree-lined road (3:30).
