Passing Time

For the unique 2×25 project, the Film Fest Gent asked 25 composers to compose a short piece of music, after which 25 filmmakers made a short film. The result: 25 exceptional films where the music inspired the form, narrative and texture. “Passing Time” began with Uruguayan composer Florencia Di Concilio’s music and was completed with Terence Davies’ reading of his own poem about his late sister, delivered over a single serene shot of the countryside near his home in Essex.
