    Epilogue On The Promenade
    Truly a remarkable work of art. One day our modern world, the reality captured in this film, will inevitably change. Our great grand-children will look upon this piece as a historical gem about a distant era. A time when oil pumped through the veins of contemporary civilization. At the climax of the film we witness the dramatic dawning of the technological age, where information travels faster than the frantic speed of light. However, despite how advanced and progressive our environment can become, the Hoop Heroes and the last sequence (the credits) are symbolic of the imperfect, hopeful and optimistic qualities which remind us that we are indeed, now and forever, humans after all.
