A couple visits a dwelling that has outgrown them. The house stands around a tree that represents a budding love that can never quite be resolved, and the troubled relationship stands alone. Another song, Transit, encompasses lives blindly moving forward for the sake of movement. When traffic slows down, all involved abandon compassion for slow mobility, despite the fact that a potential victim could be injured. When the traffic clears, all people involved speed ahead toward an unknown destination. The Nun responsible for the traffic jam slowly moves toward a choir that consists of prisoners. She facilitates beautiful harmonies and elicits song within the lowest of criminals, bringing hope to their hopeless world." I found this very interesting.
