Stan Brakhage's direct-on-film hand-painted work, completed over six years, depicts scenes from Dante's "The Divine Comedy."
"The hand-painted work six years in-the-making (37 in the studying of The Divine Comedy) demonstrates the earthly conditions of 'Hell', 'Purgatory' (or Transition), and 'Heaven' (or 'existence is song,' which is the closest I'd presume upon heaven from my experience), as well as the mainspring of/from 'Hell' (Hell Spit Flexion) in four parts." -Stan Brakhage
