Taking its course, the camera drifts in to the coves and surveys the shorelines of a multi-use reservoir to unearth fragments of its young history and consider a series of possible relationships to this artificial environment. Visits are filled with a sense of potentials and the unseen, the lake's surface separating what is buried and what is to come. Municipal orchestrations, recreational episodes, and small pageants trace this body's perimeter.
