A meditative exploration of our relationship with silence, sound and the impact of noise on our lives. With rapid global urbanization, noise pollution – an often overlooked threat to one’s well-being – is an increasing concern. When did we become so loud as a society?

Alternating between vignettes of natural tranquility and the cacophony of urban noise, this meditative documentary is hyper-sensitive to the soundscapes of modern living. Warmly beckoning us to cherish our moments of serene quietude, The Pursuit of Silence is a philosophical study in stillness.
