Perfumed Nightmare
Tahimik explains the patterns of daily life in the village through voiceover narration. He is fascinated by the Voice of America broadcasts, particularly the space program. He aspires to be a part of the developed world and establishes the Werner von Braun fan club. When an American arrives for an aborted international conference, he seizes the opportunity. The American invites him to Paris to run his gumball machine concession on the streets. In Paris and on a trip to Germany, he meets new people and learns that progress in the developed world comes at the expense of important values. With footage of a summit meeting in Paris as a backdrop, and unable to return to an idealized image of his past, he stubbornly refuses to capitulate to the terms of progress, resigning as head of the Werner von Braun fan club and vowing to forge his own path.
