A veterinarian routinely goes on house calls to
treat sick animals. He is able to save most, but
one time he arrives too late. The animal dies, and
that breaks the veterinarian's heart. One night
the animals that he has treated come to him in a
dream. He receives love and forgiveness. When
Veterinarian wakes up, his heart has healed.

Woman is a visual poem about the creation of a
woman and her two ways of encountering a man. In one way
she has a potential to bring death to a man.
In the other she can give him her love.
It all depends on the man's actions.
A woman by herself is neither good nor evil.
Neither she is a passive object
of man's desires. It is all about interaction.
Woman comes from my own personal mythology but I believe that the images I
use are quite universal.
I wanted Woman to have a dreamlike quality. The images come from my own
dreams as well as from the dreams of all women I know.
