Film Description:
"As we watch through a tourist's video camera for the Old Faithful geyser to erupt, visitors stand just outside the frame and vent their own desires and frustrations on one another. The anxious videographer and his helpful wife; the dazzled mother with her cynical teenaged son; the pontifical father and his overmodulated daughter; and the couple who have just decided to separate—as the geyser finally erupts, each of them explodes in their own way."
