Film Synopsis:

This animated montage is a lyrical, nonlinear approximation of the way the brain catalogs (and abandons) the stuff of every day life. The film is a celebration of the little moments in life and is a rotoscoped tango through the labyrinth of memory. This sweet intimate home movie captures moments that would otherwise be forgotten. Composed of over three thousand drawings and paintings, the film is a sequel to Reasons to Be Glad in which the stylistic ante is raised by denser compositions and applications of paint.
