A film about the remains of a tuberculosis sanitarium in Scranton, Pennsylvania. A letter is presented to the viewers to re-examine society as we know it and to look to the reoccurring downfalls of our past. The house metaphorically symbolizes not only the inevitable future of humankind, but also represents the earthly body and its deterioration caused by disease. The film takes us on a tour throughout the space, creating a portrait of things that once were, while also examining the impact society has had on our environment.
