This short film by Isobel Knowles was originally made for the Melbourne Women's Circus and later adapted for the Amazing Rolling Picture Show in Sydney where it was shown on a screen attached to a rickshaw.

Knowles plays with the role of women within a fantastic life cycle that includes pregnancy, birth, circus performance and transformation into a bird.

The animation style uses shadow effects and the classic paper cut-out stop motion technique. It is reminiscent of pre-cinema formats, such as the zoetrope.
