The movie is constructed from eight WFPC2 images and contains four sequences: 1) The full WFPC2 field, 2) a closer view of the pulsar, 3) closer still detailing the "sprite" which appears towards the top, and 4) extreme closeup of the pulsar and the inner knot just above it.
I think it's a convergence of thermally-driven reflections. Not too different from heat shimmer above a road. Just my guess.
