Based on a New Yorker magazine cover by Saul Steinberg, twenty American icons morph from one to another, representing the vast diversity in this country. InBetweening America was Candy Kugel's first film. She created it in 1977 when she first started inbetweening TV commercials at Perpetual Motion Pictures. It was finally completed in 2001 when The Saul Steinberg Foundation gave permission to exhibit it.
