Elegant. Raw. Original. Alex wakes one morning from a dream of developing a new Tai Chi form. Each morning before dawn he wanders down to the bay to stand silently awaiting the first intuition of movement. Instead, broken elements of his past and present converge like whirlwinds merging into a torrid life storm. Patterns set up from early childhood loom, and as the form unfolds we are led through paths we may not want to venture. With years of Taoism, Tai Chi, and street smarts, we perceive through Alex a fresh take on the madness of our lives and silliness of our convictions. A story of pain, love, and the subtle wisdom only time and experience can convey. Scavinold, as always, slowly twists and warps our perspective of the world only to bring it all back into a new and wondrous view.
