With the cold, dead eyes of stuffed whales, cinematic world travelers Daniel Barnes and Corky McDonnell finally arrive in a remote, fog-shrouded Hungarian village to review Béla Tarr’s Werckmeister Harmonies. Composed of just 39 shots in 145 minutes, Tarr’s mesmerizing millennium nightmare basks in cosmic disorder, civic unrest and an extremely disappointing circus. But did Tarr’s vision of the apocalypse Werck for your hosts, or did his off-key Harmonies leave them singing a different tune?
IMDB synopsis: “A senator returns to a Western town for the funeral of an old friend and tells the story of his origins.”
