    Movement Glimpsed shifts between fiction and historical events to describe characters and an era, both of which are delineated in increments that reflect internal and external realities that are sometimes brought into question due to subjectivity and/or point of view. These brief proceedings, which suggest a chronology, begin to meld, yet at the same time there emerges a sense of arbitrary, events and characters neglectful of one another.
