Body of a Shadow
While still asleep a woman is dragged from her house by a huge black mass. She is taken to a meadow where she finds a group of different women and girls existing with the stillness and sporadic impulsiveness of a clan of cows that were never tamed. The woman spends the night imitating the bovine behavior of the group until dawn, when the group merges?also absorbing the woman?into a homogeneous body that is revealed to the viewer as the enormous black mass at the beginning. THE MASS moves back to town to take a new woman at nightfall.
