Joe works at an arduous job in squalid conditions in a swampy warehouse. The workplace is home to a variety of slightly unhinged individuals. Joe is a man of delicate sensibilities, so when a large number of his family members die in a short period of time and his girlfriend's manner sends him to seek comfort in the arms of a very similar-looking (fantasy?) woman, he suffers a nervous breakdown. In effect, he gives adulthood up as a bad job and is soon happily incarcerated in a mental hospital. This experimental film is based on the non-narrative memoirs of a mental patient, and the story is often not perfectly clear. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
