Castro Street (1966) is a visual nonstory documentary film which inspired by Satie uses the sounds and sights of a city street—in this case, Castro Street near the Standard Oil Refinery in Richmond, California complete with diesel trains and gas plants—to convey the street's own mood and feel. There is no dialogue in this non-narrative experimental film. It was directed by Bruce Baillie.
