ABOUT THE FILM

When feeling overwhelms my voice, I sing;
mine eyes, what visions imagine they?

MURIEL /ˈmjʊəriəl/. A feminine given name. [Probably from a Celtic cognate of Irish Muirgheal : Old Irish 'muir' (sea) + 'geal' (bright), from Old Irish 'gel'.]

A hand-painted and scratched, cameraless film; its light beams only thru the lens of the projector and your pearly-crowned pair. Hand-processed prints produced as an MFA student in the Peck School of the Arts, Department of Film, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
