A soundscape of the comings and goings in a home precedes a description by a young boy of a bosun's chair, a device for crossing stretches of water. A video in three scenes captured from Betamax video shot in 1983, the material of the image floats and ripples on the screen. Its subtle material presence defies a version in extract.
