Sunday 8 January, 2017
In society’s race towards modernity, amidst technological innovation and the rapid growth of cities, silence is now quickly passing into legend. From the Desert Fathers of the third century AD who became the model for Christian monasticism to John Cage’s seminal work 4’33”, which would go on to inspire a generation of artists, humankind has had a long fascination with silence. In Pursuit of Silence is a meditative film about the power of silence and the impact of noise.
this documentary is calling for a nothing less than a global audio detox; it’s about reclaiming the lost virtue of silence
