Returns Simplified.In these two works by the radical Catalan filmmaker Pere Portabella, music, art and architecture take a pivotal role in fragmenting and unravelling the substance of history to comment on our modern world.
The acclaimedThe Silence Before Bach (Die Stille vor Bach)comprises a series of filmed vignettes, united by the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Portabella’s opulent reverie leads us through the centuries, investigating the profound, complex relationship between image and music.
