Toniet Gallego, Sister Missionary P. Delight, James Ferguson, Allen Jeffrey Rein, Anna May Hirsch, Katherine Moore. Originally produced as a motion picture in 2002.

Special features include: Production stills gallery, interviews with Milford Thomas and Anne Richardson, director's commentary, live soundtrack recording. Silent film with original score. "An homage to early cinema, the film was glowingly shot on a vintage hand-cranked 35mm camera and is accompanied by the Orchestra De Lune conducted by Anne Richardson. Like its silent-era camera, all set-design and special effects were achieved the old-fashioned way, using canvas backgrounds, semi-hidden wires, and multiple exposures, creating a timeless atmosphere of wonder and magic."--Container.
