Plot: HAROLD is an allergy-prone recluse, living in a small Echo Park (Los Angeles) house in the center of a vibrant and loud Hispanic community. He spends his days obsessing over his collection of microphones, compressors, and sonic devices -- recording neighborhood sounds and eavesdropping on the conversations of others to enjoy from the safe, hypoallergenic realm of his insulated home. That is, until a growing pile of bills leads him to rent out his garage to the vivacious young ALLY, a bike mechanic with an almost anthropological interest in "weirdoes". Needless to say, she is fascinated by Harold, but shows little regard for his personal space. When Harold's 6-year-old neighbor PEARL goes missing, Harold's world is turned upside down when he realizes that his neighborhood recordings, along with the mysterious appearance of several strange objects in his home, may provide clues to the case. Not trusting the police, the unlikely pair vow to find Pearl themselves by spying on their neighbors and pursuing their own suspects. Ally's drive and Harold's fear prove a difficult and sometimes comic detective partnership as Ally pushes Harold far beyond his realms of comfort and challenges the very nature of his identity. Against the backdrop of a small community's mystery, "The Sound and the Shadow" examines the very character of our homes -- how we live, love, and hide inside of them.

Plot: Humans perceive their daily life in the world as a reality. This is due to the belief of cause and effect. The belief of cause and effect creates thoughts of actions, which convince man his day is filled with events and situations. Conclusions about these make way for emotions man experiences, which include misery and the quest for happiness. This documentary, based on the books written by Dr. Vijai S. Shankar crosses the boundaries of mind by stripping away beginnings and endings and the concept of time, thereby exposing doer-ship as illusory. The documentary unveils time and reality for what they really are, an optical and auditory illusion of light and sound.

Quotes:
Harry Farber: This is like a moment from a horror movie.
Harry Farber: Hello? Is the bathroom on this level working? A dog inside the building! Go! Shoo! Why you're not a dog at all. My god, this is like a moment from a horror movie. This is precisely the moment where the mutation or beast will attempt to kill an unlikable side character. But, in stories where there has been no prior cursing, violence, nudity or death, such as in a family film, the unlikable character will escape his encounter, and be referenced later in the story, having learned valuable lessons. He may even be given a humorous moment to allow the audience to feel good about him. This is where I turn to run. You will leap for me, I will shut the door, and you will land a fraction of a second too late. [Turns to run, is killed by wolf]
Mrs. Bubchik: He's [Mr. Bubchik] probably looking in the mirror. He has this growth on his ass! Don't tell him I told ya.
Young-Soon Choi: Mr. Heep, my mom told me more of the story before she threw a cushion at me.
Vick: Am I gonna die, because I wrote this?::Story: Yes.
Anna Ran: He's hearing the voice of God through a crossword puzzle!
Story: It's about to get very dangerous
Young-Soon Choi: [repeatedly] Goodbye Mr Heep.
Cleveland Heep: H-how was the movie?::Harry Farber: Sucked::Cleveland Heep: Oh... what a shame.::Harry Farber: Characters were walking around, saying their thoughts out loud. Who does that? And in a typical romance where the couple finally tell each other they love one another in the rain. Why does everyonelike to stand around and talk in the rain in movies?::Cleveland Heep: Um... well maybe it's a metaphor for purification; starting new.::Harry Farber: No, it's not!
Cleveland Heep: [to Story] Thank you for saving my life.
