Plot summary

A man's sleep is broken by a parade of visions that come to him one after another and change into each other as he watches. A girl wrapped only in a sheet appears, then a minstrel in blackface, then Pierrot, and then a grinning moon that gnaws at his arm. The scene is played as a silent trick film, staged outdoors in a garden in front of painted scenery.
