Overview

A 9-month construction of a 20-story office building, from ground level to completion, is depicted in this film with the use of stop-motion photography. Effects of whisking clouds, sky moods, moving traffic and the rapid rise of girders, concrete and glass work against a frenetic moving crane. A burst of music from Richard Strauss, used by director Stanley Kubrick in 2001: Space Odyssey ironically underlines that another "monolith" is completed.
