Seconds is an unsettling, sci-fi drama with dystopian, Faustian undertones. A secret organization known as "The Company" provides new bodies and identities to rich people who want to escape their lives. Through the visual device of a mold or die Bass captured the idea of stamping out a brand new, albeit macabre, type of product, evoking the film's revelations of the depths to which a system based on profit could sink. The name of the film spreads across the width of the image in red capitals, each letter split into two parts, echoing the two lives of those who place themselves in the hands of "The Company".
