TEMPO ADAGIO

At the edge of the land where the land meets the sea, and the sea meets the sky on the distant horizon, a string quartet appears on a beach. During a beautiful performance recorded in situ, we are invited with imagery and music to contemplate the passage of time and the slow turning of the earth with the slow greatness of the first movement of Beethoven’s String Quartet no. 14 in C♯ minor, Opus 131, 'Adagio ma non troppo e molto espressivo'.

Nothing Personal

Alone in her empty flat, from her window Anne observes the people passing by who nervously snatch up the personal belongings and pieces of furniture she has put out on the pavement. Her final gesture of taking a ring off her finger signals she is leaving her previous life in Holland behind. She goes to Ireland, where she chooses to lead a solitary, wandering existence, striding through the austere landscapes of Connemara. During her travels, she discovers a house that is home to a hermit, Martin.
