The experimental film features ambiguous characters (a boy, a deep-sea diver and a mystical lady with an orbital head) [2] on a surrealist dream-like journey [3] full of various imagery through juxtaposed with symbols and images from themes such as antiquity to the space age, accompanied by alternating backgrounds, before the film ends in a garden.
Our Lady of the Sphere is now part of Anthology Film Archives' Essential Cinema Repertory collection.[4] In 2010, it was selected for preservation by the National Film Registry.[5][6]
