Winter (1979)

After waiting for a bus at Fern Tree that never arrives, a clown takes refuge under the snowy rocks of Mount Wellington and frolics on the wintery beach at Kingston with a black dog. Throughout the film the footage cuts to a psychedelic Hobart house party where the clown is both present and absent, joyful and sad.
