Winding germs and glowing flowers colour this alchemical 16mm miniature. Pryce spins gossamer golden threads in the silent darkness of the
cinema. The book The Mirror of Alchemy from 1597 states: “The gold obtained through this art surpasses natural gold in all its
attributes both medically and in every other way.”
