Alberto Giacometti in his Paris studio squeezing and stretching and mauling the clay in his hands. Through sharply edited close-ups, dissonant soundtrack and solemn commentary, this Arts Council film captures the intensity of the artist's concentration as he rhythmically models the spindly, elongated figures that characterise his work.
