L/S of a cute little baby lying top of some thick blankets, there is a large imposing model stork above it. C/U of the baby. "Days are far to short for Baby - so at night his other selves sneak off to do the things he overlooked." C/U of the baby fast asleep. With the help of trick photography a tiny baby appears on his temple. A number of babies are seen walking across the child's forehead, (spooky !) and disappearing. "The infant explorer in Nightmareland - a strange country, peopled with grotesque figures out of the night !" C/U's of the baby's toy monkey moving it's arms legs and ears as well as a rabbit and a toy clown who dances (it's rather weird and surreal). M/S's of the baby playing with a camera and playing with a duck in a small bath tub. more trick photography as the camera pans from left to right past a number of identical babies. M/S of the baby yawning and rubbing his eyes several times. L/S of the baby watching it self on large cinema screen, which unfortunately keeps going out of rack. We discover why when the baby is seen attempting to eat the film from the projector ! "One little baby - Mother wishes there were more like him." More trick photography showing rows and rows of the same baby laughing. | |
