<p>Sequences of a contemporary Cinderella practising&nbsp;a Bach&nbsp;prelude and struggling to keep up with the tyrannical precision of&nbsp;metronomic&nbsp;rhythm&nbsp;are juxtaposed&nbsp;with images of her daily life, thereby generating the&nbsp;soundtrack&nbsp;for her own &ldquo;film&rdquo;. The metronome precisely beats time in a&nbsp;mechanical&nbsp;rather than a &ldquo;musical&rdquo; manner and may be a help or hindrance to&nbsp;development. The repetitious nature of piano practice suggests that the girl&rsquo;s&nbsp;existence&nbsp;is also repetitive and that negative aspects of her relationship with&nbsp;her&nbsp;mother&nbsp;may be&nbsp;a prelude for future relationships.&nbsp;</p>
