Synopsis
Everybody has a public person and something else which they refer to as 'I'. The approach of the character portrait in documentary filmmaking serves only to reenforce this. The purpose of this drama is to reveal the mind loop that exists between these two 'I's. A post-structuralist treatment of an interview between a writer and his alter ego, based loosely upon G.L. Borges essay BORGES AND I; The Rene Margritte premise that 'this is not a pipe'.
