Werckmeister Harmonies
Aroview: A visionary film to herald in the 21st century, Bela Tarr’s apocalyptic masterpiece begins with the arrival of a bizarre circus attraction to a provincial Hungarian town, and the fascist uprising it mysteriously provokes.
Cast in long, virtuoso tracking shots and mesmerizing black and white photography, Tarr’s monumental imagery ominously discloses the strange bedlam that unfolds; the impending doom further underlined by a dense, dramatic score and minimal editing for maximum effect.
