Based on the stage play Passages from Finnegans Wake which in itself is based on random passages from Finnegans Wake, Mary Ellen Bute's adaptation is a comical avant-garde black and white kaleidoscope about a man named Finnegan who dreams about his wake and then wakes up from his dream so the "wake" has a double meaning. Now you don't have to read 1400 pages unless you want to.
