We see a disembodied hand upon a head and we hear a distorted piano track, interfered by a drone. Sometimes it seems like the hand is pushing the head, and at other times it seems to be the head that wills the hand. This might be a sketch of the ambiguities involved in power and resistance, inspiration and hallucination.
But it could also be a highly compressed, emblematic portrait of Gould – as in the pianist Glenn Gould. He possesses the music, as the music possesses him.
