I think that's a metaphor for the collisions we all have over time, as our ideas of ourselves get out of synch with the historical moment.

There's a long history of people who spent that $300,000 on their first film and weren't quite ready, and then they never did it again 'cause they were out of synch with where they were, and they would never raise that money again.
