Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
'RAMEAU'S NEPHEW' BY DIDEROT (THANX TO DENNIS YOUNG) BY WILMA SCHOEN
Synopsis
Consisting of 25 sections, each segment is a meditation–often comic–about the nature of recorded sound, both abstract and representational, about the many possible kinds of audiovisual relationships, and about their philosophical implications.

Our take
Canadian film titan Michael Snow pulls out all the stops in this epic, playful experiment in language and representation, exploring the myriad possibilities of sound and image. Featuring the crème-de-la-crème of the avant-garde art world, Snow called it a “musical comedy”—and trust us, it’s funny!
