Master 1 - Tape 1 ECU stack of coins shake back and forth and then fall. It is supposed to symbolize economic collapse, probably the Stock Market Crash of 1929. Low angle shots of coins shaking, falling. High angle shots of coins falling into pile. Could be American coins, maybe French.. Shot of falling coins superimposed over shot of machines minting coins - very graphic and rhythmic.
