Film Description:
"A & B in Ontario was completed eighteen years after the original material was shot. After [Hollis] Frampton's death, the film was assembled by [Joyce] Wieland into a cinematic dialogue in which the collaborators (in the spirit of the sixties) shoot each other with cameras."

Film Description:
"The film is a send-up of the gangster flick. Joyce and Hollis aim hand-held cameras at each other, shooting themselves and the surrounding scenery. The playful diversity of crowded, noisy, dirty New York street scenes is interposed with lyrical sequences of footprints on the Ward's Island beach, waves, birds, trees, and the sound of crickets."
