It was the first film by Luís Noronha da Costa, the record of an experience that consisted in the projection of the filmed image of the facade of a building on that same facade. It was projected from the same point that was filmed, that is, from the window of the floor where Luis Noronha da Costa lived. Therefore, there is a search for consciousness - or the double effect - between a projection and a filmic image. "Use the camera to turn off the camera", like the quote from Dreyer that Luís Noronha da Costa likes so much. "The image of the house is not separated from the house of the image." An "impossible" attempt to shoot frame by frame the real thing.
