«Ce film est né de mon amour pour la musique africaine contemporaine. Je collectionne des enregistrements de cette musique depuis une vingtaine d`années en me concentrant particulièrement sur la musique des anciennes colonies portugaises Angola, Mozambique, Guinée-Bissau et Cap Vert. Un jour, alors que j`étais en train de classer mes enregistrements de musique angolaise, j`ai découvert que je possédais six versions différentes d`une chanson intitulée Muxima. C`est ainsi que le film est né. » Alfredo Jaar

Alfredo Jaar est né en 1956 à Santiago de Chili. Il a remporté le prestigieux MacArthur Fellowship, ainsi que d?autres prix. Il a étudié l?architecture et la réalisation. Depuis 1982, il vit et travaille à New York. Son travail a été exposé dans des expositions individuelles et de groupe dans les musées du monde entier, dont le New Museum of Contemporary Art de New York, le Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art et au Moderna Museet de Stockholm. Jaar a également présenté son travail aux biennales de Venise, de São Paulo, de Johannesburg, de Sydney, d?Istanbul, et de Kwangju. Son travail a été exposé en 2002 à la Documenta de Kassel avec son installation « Lament of the Images ». Alfredo Jaar est un artiste sans compromis. Ses installations combinent des éléments photographiques, architecturaux, et des images documentaires, et explorent les relations complexes développées entre les nations et les soit disant pays du tiers-monde. Dans son travail, Alfredo Jaar suit et souligne les ironies et les injustices qui caractérisent ces relations, et met à jour la recherche systématique du profit qui y sont sous jacentes.

FROM THE HORSE?S MOUTH (I CAN PRODUCE -PRONOUNCE- NUCLEAR), Nisi Jacobs, Video, 11min., 2005. Commissionné par Maya Stendhal Gallery, New York City pour l?exposition VITAL SIGNS 2005. FROM THE HORSE?S MOUTH a aussi un second titre : (I CAN PRODUCE -PRONOUNCE-- NUCLEAR) qui est le c?ur de la motivation de sa création en tant que moment improvisé alors que Laura Bush lisait un monologue comique écrit à l?avance en 2005 lors du Dîner du Correspondant à la Maison Blanche, à Washington D.C.dans lequel elle fait un lapsus et échangé ?produit? avec ?prononce?. L?effet est sidérant car c?est son mari qui, à la table du banquet à la sourire jusqu?aux oreilles en écoutant ses blagues, a oublié de publier le communiqué sur les armes de destruction massives et qui en a fait sa raison pour envahir l?Irak. Les images de confort et l?effet du gag de dégageant visuellement intensifient cette toxicité maladive et cette hypocrisie qui engloutit la salle et ses 2 500 politiciens, journalistes, et médias ?managers? qui se réjouissent de ce trait d?esprit préfabriqué et qui en même temps s?impliquent eux-mêmes dans les crimes du mari de Laura.

Nisi Jacobs est née et a grandi à New York. Elle est allé à la Stuyvesant High School où elle a étudié l?écriture créative avec Frank McCourt, l?auteur de ?Les Cendres d?Angela? et ?Tis?.

Elles ont aussi participé à l?exposition ??Fragment in Paradise? ? de Jonas Meka en 2005, au ?Vital Signs? penchée sur la politique de l?exposition du groupe d?été (2005) et aussi comme une installation sonore de 70 min en Surrond 5.1 pour l?installation de la projection du film de Ken et Flo Jacobs titré ??The Guests??.Nisi Jacobs a amené sa vidéo à l?écran lors de festival à Paris, Berlin, Athènes en Grèce, à Hong Kong, au Royaume-Uni, à San Fransisco, à New York mais aussi au Tribeca Film Festival (2003).

a loft 16 min., silent, color, 2010 computer assistance; Nisi Jacobs A 3-D glimpse of a downtown Manhattan artist?s loft about to give birth to new artist?s lofts, which is odd, seeing that dentists and the minor hirelings of high finance are likely to be the new renters and buyers. Also odd is the absence of any 3-D technology.

excerpt from THE SKY SOCIALIST stratified A digital visit in 2009 to where we, Flo and I, had been in 1964/65. Young people of today, take my word there`s no exaggerating how vivid, of the moment, whizbang and splendidly new 1964 and 65 were in their time. True, I was entering my thirties but Flo, my child-bride, was turning 23. Underground Cinema had gotten momentarily hot just as my 16mm camera was stolen. I recoiled from the throng pushing to enter the circle of cheap celebrity and switched to 8mm. I then filmed THE SKY SOCIALIST, a sunny feature during the time of US assault upon the Vietnamese people -why? because they were there, they were "yellow". and profit margins couldn`t be better, and afterwards Flo and I struggled to make a decent 16mm. blow-up, yet to happen. The purpose of cinema as I understood it then was to lie, in order to make history bearable. The lie, however, was to be obvious enough so as to allude to the truth; film was a lie that invited seeing through, it was like religion but with a more of a wink. Flo then became a stand-in for Anne Frank, while The Muse Of Cinema flew to the rescue with a happy ending mostly because she knew doing so gave her a chance to look good. Our days were permeated with the transcendent music of Olivier Messiaen and Charles Ives and Arnold Schoenberg and so, naturally, was this perfectly self-indulgent movie. For this return visit some of Messiaen can still be heard, contending with the supremely hip sensibility of Michael Schumacher.

THE DAY WAS A SCORCHER Movie-star Flo, Nisi the thoughtful young girl, and Aza old enough to trudge with the rest of us but still expecting to be pushed around on wheels. The sun doesn`t kid around when it`s a sunny day in Rome. But it`s a perfect day , when -as said- nothing happens.

Selon l'artiste, l'une des belles choses dans les films, c'est qu?on peut les garder à distance. Mais « The Scenic Route », semble déborder de l'écran, en mettant continuellement en danger les lignes de démarcation.

YOSHIKO 5`, 2007, DV, A/V By Nisi Jacobs YOSHIKO, collage d'images volées et de vidéos auto-produites, est un hommage à mon amie de toujours, Yoshiko Masuzawa. Yoshika a émigré aux Etats-Unis au début des années soixante et habitait dans l'appartement du dessous. Elle a vécut pendant la guerre enfant et m'apprit des manières importantes; la seule fois où je la vis fâchée ce fût quand, enfants, nous avions commencé à jouer et à lancer du riz à table. Elle nous dit que le riz la garda en vit, elle et sa famille pendant la guerre, que c'était précieux et qu'il ne fallait pas le jeter. Comme les autres membres de sa famille, Yoshika souffrait, et cela avec une grâce immense, d un cancer du colon, pendant les dernières années. Elle a été récemment diagnostiquée avec une forme de cancer terminal et emménagea dans un hospice. Ce film est une tentative de conserver le regard et l'admiration que je porte à son esprit de tigresse, son humour et son humanité gracieuse. -Nisi Jacobs, 10/17/07

NOTHING/MOVING fut crée pour l?exposition de Jonas Mekas. Fragments de paradis à la Galerie Maya Stendhal , ville de New York, comme une installation à canal simple sur plusieurs moniteurs basée sur le film épique de Jonas Mekas "As I was Moving Ahead Occasionally I Saw Brief Glimpses of Beauty", 16 mm, 2000. Pellicule- journal de vingt-cinq ans de vie à SoHo, à New York, et les commentaires spontanés d'une voix-off sont utilisées comme un matériel brut, avec des morceaux de bandes sonores de "Zazie dans le métro" de Louie Malle, que j?ai vu pour la première fois à l?anthologie de Mekas à SoHo en 1976, et des chants d?oiseaux exotiques formant un poème visuel/sonore en hommage à Jonas Mekas. Crédits : Nisi Jacobs avec Pip Chodorov. Film original de Jonas Mekas. N.J.

Epacta est le mot Latin pour le nombre de jours qui doivent être calculés pour synchroniser les calendriers lunaires et solaires. L?année solaire est de 365 jours et l?année lunaire est de 354 jours, il faut donc habituellement 11 jours pour les mettre en phase. J?ai pris des sons d?instruments lunaires, de cordes et de passerelles en métal, crées par les petits tiraillements des bateaux sur les docks dans les ports, mais crées aussi par la gravitation lunaire sur nos corps aqueux. L?audio de EPACTA LUNAE, A DAY AND A HALF, dérivé d?enregistrements naturels sur plusieurs niveaux dans un lit d?accords synthétisés. EPACTA LUNAE, A DAY AND A HALF est le premier poème vidéo sonore qui est inclus dans un projet beaucoup plus large nommé THE MOON?S GUITAR, COLLABORATION WITH THE TIDES..

FROM THE HORSE?S MOUTH (I CAN PRODUCE -PRONOUNCE- NUCLEAR), Nisi Jacobs, Video, 11min., 2005. Commissionné par Maya Stendhal Gallery, New York City pour l?exposition VITAL SIGNS 2005. FROM THE HORSE?S MOUTH a aussi un second titre : (I CAN PRODUCE -PRONOUNCE-- NUCLEAR) qui est le c?ur de la motivation de sa création en tant que moment improvisé alors que Laura Bush lisait un monologue comique écrit à l?avance en 2005 lors du Dîner du Correspondant à la Maison Blanche, à Washington D.C.dans lequel elle fait un lapsus et échangé ?produit? avec ?prononce?. L?effet est sidérant car c?est son mari qui, à la table du banquet à la sourire jusqu?aux oreilles en écoutant ses blagues, a oublié de publier le communiqué sur les armes de destruction massives et qui en a fait sa raison pour envahir l?Irak. Les images de confort et l?effet du gag de dégageant visuellement intensifient cette toxicité maladive et cette hypocrisie qui engloutit la salle et ses 2 500 politiciens, journalistes, et médias ?managers? qui se réjouissent de ce trait d?esprit préfabriqué et qui en même temps s?impliquent eux-mêmes dans les crimes du mari de Laura.

Frappée par la facilité avec laquelle quelqu?un d?aussi expressif et articulé que mon père à perdre son aptitude à parler en une nuit à cause d?une crises cardiaque, j?ai commence à filmer le texte de la ville. Le son enregistré est un montage de dialectes fabriqués par Peter Rose quand je l?ai enregistré lire un poème que j?ai écrit et mélangé avec une lamentation altérée synthétiquement. Des moments mutilés de l?écriture provenant de jours, au hasard, après la crise cardiaque se meuvent en des blocs de mots formels dans un environnement jouant entre la langage en tant que symbole, le langage en tant qu?image, et le langage en tant qu?expérience.

Deepening confusion becomes a delightful experience watching this collaborative film by Daniel Jacoby and Araki Yu. The documentary observes the idiosyncratic sounds and rhythms of Ban’ei, a rare kind of draft horse race that takes place only in Obihiro, Japan. Capturing the behind-the-scenes operations of the race, the film gradually twists itself into a knot as the excited voices of the commentators merge into a frenzy of gibberish.

Daniel Jacoby (1985, Lima, Peru) and Yu Araki (1985, Yamagata, Japan) met in 2010 during a residency at Tokyo Wonder Site (Tokyo). Both their works have been highly influenced by their journeys. Fiction is often used by them as a tool to comprehend the puzzling cultural and socio-political differences across destinations. Their first film made as a duo is Mountain Plain Mountain (2017). This premiered and was awarded at the Ammodo Tiger Short Competition at IFFRotterdam in 2018. Daniel Jacoby graduated in fine arts from the University of Barcelona and furthered his education at the Städelschule in Frankfurt. Recent exhibitions include venues like Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona), CRAC Alsace (Altkirch), EYE Film Institute (Amsterdam), The Banff Centre (Alberta), Kunsthal Chalottenborg (Copenhagen), Palais de Tokyo (Paris), Kunstverein Harburger Bahnhof (Hamburg), 1646 (The Hague), Trafó (Budapest), and the 11th Cuenca Biennial (Ecuador). His films have been programmed in festivals such as 25FPS (Zagreb), BIM (Buenos Aires), MIEFF (Moscow), Go Short (Nijmegen), Sheffield Fringe (UK), Videobrasil (Sao Paulo), Les Rencontres Internationales (Paris), and Cairo Video Festival (Cairo). His film Jagata won the National Competition at Lima Independiente (Peru) in 2016. Daniel has participated in residency programs at Delfina Foundation (London), Jan van Eyck Academie (Maastricht), Casino Luxembourg (Luxembourg), Tokyo Wonder Site (Tokyo), among other places. Yu Araki received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Sculpture from Washington University in St. Louis, U.S.A. in 2007, and completed his Master of Film and New Media Studies from Tokyo University of the Arts in 2010. In 2013, he was selected to participate in Tacita Dean Workshop hosted by Fundacio´n Boti´n in Santander, Spain. His films have been programmed in international festivals such as NIFF (Thailand), BFI London Film Festival (U.K.), The Weight of Mountains (Iceland), International Short Film Festival Oberhausen (Germany), Dong Fang (Italy), and MIFF (Russia). Recent exhibitions and screenings include Okayama Art Summit (Okayama, Japan), Yokoha- ma Museum of Art (Yokohama, Japan), The Benaki Museum (Athens, Greece), JIKKA (Tokyo, Japan), The Container (Tokyo, Japan), Washingtown (Mito, Japan), ZKM (Karlsruhe, Germany), CAST (Tasmania, Australia), Tate Modern (London, U.K.), A*DESK (Barcelona, Spain), no.w.here (London, U.K.), Alternative Space LOOP (Seoul, South Korea), and Para/Site Art Space (Hong Kong). Araki has participated in residency programs at SNEHTA (Greece), Nes Artist Residency (Iceland), and Tokyo Wonder Site Aoyama (Japan), among other places. He lives and works in Tokyo, Japan.

Two camels and two men are trapped inside a fable, longing for, but distrusting knowledge. Who can fight for humanity among football playing fascists, partisan storms and phony nature? “Nothing but progress” freely adapts tales by German philosopher Günter Anders.

Frédéric Jaeger is a film critic and filmmaker based in Berlin. In his artistic work he looks for contradictions in the contemporary society, in order to have fun with them. He is the founder of the German-speaking film magazine critic.de and contributor to Berliner Zeitung and Spiegel Online. Nino Klingler is a freelance film critic and filmmaker living in Berlin, Germany. After having worked for the German Federal Foreign Office he now attends as an artist the graduate school of Universitat der Künste in Berlin.

La création d'Evaldas Jansas "To Be on Show" (?Būti i?statytam?) ne peut être catégorisée par genre ou ses caractéristiques. On peut y trouver des images documentaires d'un plan détaillé de la ville de Vilnius présenté à la société et des images de la vie des tous les jours d'habitants d'un asile psycho-neurologique mêlées à un documentaire "faussé" i.e les scènes sont jouées et les effets édités à l'ordinateur. L'histoire entière, fiction tragique et auto-ironique, est accompagnée par la narration d'un héros bégayant racontant comment il s'est retrouvé dans un asile de fous.

Time-lapse sequences shot at various public locations in Johannesburg blend into hybrid spaces. The locations include underwater shoots at public swimming pools over 24 hours, similar studies of the Bree Street taxi rank, as well as impressionistic studies of moments such as rain beating on a car windshield. These spaces interpenetrate and blend in the film, creating hybrid spaces: an underwater taxi rank with swimmers darting across the ceiling, legs of swimmers tangling in the branches of a Jacaranda tree during a summer storm, and giant ballroom dancers stepping through the taxi rank at the end of a commuting day. In this film we have explored the poetic possibilities of these hybrid, polyrhythmic spaces, moving into the realm of dream images rather than the sometimes harsh documentary studies from which the material is drawn. Still, dreaming about Johannesburg will always be to an extent disquieting. The interweaving of the rhythms of work and leisure time, as well as the underlying currents of class and race tensions within Johannesburg are absorbed by the camera, emerging as a questioning of the complex multiplicities of daily life experience in this often brutal city.

Mocke Jansen van Veuren was born in 1976 in Johannesburg, South Africa. He has worked in educational publishing and arts research in the non-governmental sector, as a professional animator and, since 2002, as a lecturer in Multimedia and digital filmmaking. In 2004, he started the on-going collaborative Minutes Project with Theresa Collins, documenting aspects of life in Johannesburg via time-lapse photography. Since 2006 van Veuren has collaborated with choreographer Nelisiwe Xaba in the creation of various performative works, focusing on sound composition and experimental video. He currently divides his time between the production of experimental films, the development of an analytical body of research, educational materials development, performative work, and lecturing at the UJ Multimedia Department and the Academy of Screen Arts (a new division of the Academy of Sound Engineering).
Theresa Collins lives and works in Johannesburg and graduated in 2002 with an MA Fine Art degree. The video and photography-based work she produces engages with elements drawn from her urban environment. She has worked in collaboration with Mocke Jansen van Veuren over the last 8 years and their preferred medium, time-lapse photography, lies somewhere between documentary film-making and animation. Their interest in time-lapse photography stems from studies in, and a passion for, the animation medium. Collins has recently worked as a researcher in the fields of education, heritage and history. She is currently working with the Market Photo Workshop as manager of curriculum and training.

Witte de With fut créé en 1990, c?est un centre consacré à l?art contemporain qui a pour mission d?introduire l?art contemporain et la théorie dans le contexte de la Cité de Rotterdam ainsi qu?aux Pays-Bas dans leur ensemble. Cette institution cherchait initialement à proposer une alternative à la fois aux musées classiques destinés à l?art moderne et aux initiatives existantes mises en places par les artistes. Au fil des années, Witte de With a évolué et désormais, il commande et produit de nouvelles ?uvres d?art. Tout ceci a abouti au développement d?un réseau local, national et international de personnes et d?organisations qui suivent et supportent activement les activités de l?institution. Dès le départ, beaucoup de ces activités ont été commentées ou accompagnées par des publications qui sont maintenant distribuées et lues à grande échelle. La mission de Witte de With est toujoursde représenter les nouvelles évolutions qui ont lieu en art contemporain, sans faire de concessions en ce qui concerne leur contenu, et en cherchant pourtant en même temps à toucher le public le plus large possible.

Renske Janssen est née à Gemert en 1975. Elle vit à Rotterdam et y travaille en tant que conservatrice, historienne de l?art et écrivain. Auparavant, elle a travaillé au musée Stedelijk d?Amsterdam en tant qu?assistante du conservateur. Depuis 2004, elle est la conservatrice de Witte de With, centre d?art contemporain de Rotterdam sous les ordres de Catherine David et, actuellement, de Nicolaus Schafhausen. Elle entre autres organisé plusieurs expositions collectives telles que ?Street: behind the cliché? en 2006 qui traitait du sujet complexe de l?espace publique et privé. A travers la concentration d?expositions personnelles et de publications, elle s?intéresse principalement à des positions artistiques spécifiques qui traitent de l?image et des notions autour de la représentation dans l?art et la culture populaire, tout d?abord avec Mathias Poldena en 2006 puis avec Tris Vonna-Michell en 2007. Avec un intérêt pour l?utilisation contemporaine du personnel et de l?émotif dans l?imagerie en mouvement, elle a élaboré un programme pour l?International Film Festival Rotterdam de 2007 composé d?une sélection de films d?artistes appelée Depiction, Perversion, Repulsion, Obsession, Subversion qui se concentrera sur l?utilisation (non) critique des outils cinématographiques que sont la bande son et le montage.

420 pochettes de disques 33 tours sont photographiées en demi-format sur film diapositive et projetées à raison de 24 images par seconde. Cela donne un film de 17,5 secondes.

"Trois séquences non-linéaires mais reliées entre elles qui mélangent fiction et non-fiction. Des mésaventures successives, telles que sa perte, le fait qu'il ait été écrasé par un camion ou bien encore qu'il ait été impliqué dans la panne de trois projecteurs dans différentes régions du monde, participent à l'histoire de ce film. Réalisé à l'origine pour la First International Exhibition of 3-image Films de l'Anthology Film Archives en 1995, il a été récemment réédité en vidéo pour une projection à l'Underground Film Festival de Chicago, "New Visions," qui a eu lieu en Août 2005."

In April 2017, hundreds of extras on a field near Moscow reconstruct the iconic key scene of Russian war commemoration -­ the storming of the German Reichstag and the raising of the Soviet flag atop the building. A copy of the Reichstag building erected for this purpose as part of a Russian military recreational park near Moscow is the starting point for “Rekapitulieren” (“Recapitulate”). The work investigates the modelling of collective monuments of memory, the role of image­ political practices and processes of staging and (re)constructing history. It asks about the ghostly switching points of the past and the ‘identitarian’ intentions with which historical images can be reanimated and used in the present.

Juliane Jaschnow is a filmmaker and artist. Working with film, video, installation, object and print she discusses contemporary and historical image politics as well as collective narratives, memory processes, and their identity-creating dimension. She studied visual arts specializing in expanded cinema and photography at the Leipzig Academy of Visual Arts. Juliane Jaschnow is a graduate of the Professional Media Master Class PMMC for artistic documentary film and the PMMC Lab at the werkleitz Center for Media Arts. Her work has been shown in international festivals and exhibitions such as transmediale Berlin, Deichtorhallen Hamburg, National Gallery Prague, DOK Leipzig, Ars Electronica Linz. She is a member of the Filmic Initiative Leipzig FILZ. www.julianejaschnow.de

In West Germany, ,,Dark Germany`` was a derisive term for reactionary regions of the country. Today it is mostly applied to former East Germany with its attempts to change its image: factories and chimneys are disappearing, wellness centers are popping up, sheep are grazing under solar panels. But recent past is stored close to the new surface. On a ghost train ride through the former GDR- industrial region around Halle/Bitterfeld, the Dunkeldeutschland-born filmmakers stumbling subjective camera is trying to find the right distance. Starting point of the journey is the former ORWO film factory, where people used to work in complete darkness.

In April 2017, hundreds of extras on a field near Moscow reconstruct the iconic key scene of Russian war commemoration -­ the storming of the German Reichstag and the raising of the Soviet flag atop the building. A copy of the Reichstag building erected for this purpose as part of a Russian military recreational park near Moscow is the starting point for “Rekapitulieren” (“Recapitulate”). The work investigates the modelling of collective monuments of memory, the role of image­ political practices and processes of staging and (re)constructing history. It asks about the ghostly switching points of the past and the ‘identitarian’ intentions with which historical images can be reanimated and used in the present.

In West Germany, ,,Dark Germany`` was a derisive term for reactionary regions of the country. Today it is mostly applied to former East Germany with its attempts to change its image: factories and chimneys are disappearing, wellness centers are popping up, sheep are grazing under solar panels. But recent past is stored close to the new surface. On a ghost train ride through the former GDR- industrial region around Halle/Bitterfeld, the Dunkeldeutschland-born filmmakers stumbling subjective camera is trying to find the right distance. Starting point of the journey is the former ORWO film factory, where people used to work in complete darkness.

Un avion solitaire vole haut au-dessus d’un paysage sombre. Au milieu de champs de neige intacte, un rover scrute à la fois le sol et les étoiles, et commence à être troublé par l’histoire qu’on lui a jadis inculquée. Isolées à l’intérieur de l’appareil, des personnes tentent d’interpréter les messages de plus en plus complexes du rover, tout en cherchant à dévoiler le passé — et l’avenir.

Appu Jasu (né en 1987) est un artiste basé à Helsinki, travaillant avec la vidéo, le son, la photographie et le texte. Dans ses œuvres, fiction, documentaire et absurde se rencontrent et échangent des idées sur la vie et la société. Sa pratique consiste à réfléchir à travers chacun de ces médiums — image, texte, son — chacun prenant tour à tour l’initiative pour orienter l’œuvre dans une nouvelle direction. Les vidéos de Jasu figurent dans les collections du Musée d’art contemporain Kiasma et du Musée d’art d’Helsinki, et ont été présentées notamment au WNDX (Canada) et à Doclisboa (Portugal).

L´oeuvre de Jänique est une plage de la compilation ?Essay?s on the radio : Can I have two minutes of your time?? ("Essais radiophoniques : puis-je avoir deux minutes de votre temps?"), par Cronica Electronica. Cette compilation se compose d´un CD audio et d´un DVD, et, comme Cronica ne voulait pas simplement rassembler des morceaux de musique (aussi intéressants ces morceaux soient-ils), ils ont essayé de trouver une idée unifierait les plages en une composition collective cohérente, afin de ne pas seulement présenter le label et chaque artiste, mais aussi d´en faire une occasion de créer une oeuvre qui aurait une signification. "Essays on Radio" cherche à commenter un moyen sonore, la technique et la culture radio.

We follow a man of advanced age walking along a misty mountain path in China. In one shot he carries a bag; in others he carries sacks of rice, or timber, or large buckets of water. He’s filmed in the morning, in the evening, and at night. The seasons change as we walk with him, through the bleakness of the winter, or on a fresh spring morning. The low-key atmosphere, the subdued gray-green hues of the surroundings, and the absence of dialogue and music all lend this film a refreshingly understated feel. A space is opened up in which the viewer can listen to the sound of the wind, the man’s footsteps, the birds. There is time to wonder who the man is that we are following, where he is going, and what his life is like. Only at the end of his journey do we find out a little more about him.
