This film is animated in the rough collage style that James MacSwain has made his own. Utilizing a series of vignettes, the film traces the story of the child born to Marilyn Monroe and President Kennedy. As the satire unfolds, the story becomes a metaphor for the collapse of the American Empirre due to mysticism and drugs. Also available on DVD on the compilation “James MacSwain Retrospective.”
