Directed by Patrick Shen, In Pursuit Of Silence is a documentary about our relationship with silence and the impact of noise on our lives.
The first 19 seconds of this trailer were very blissful indeed; a truth reinforced by the ‘rude’ manner in which it was interrupted.
I’d actually be quite happy to sit and watch from 0:04 to 0:17 seconds, for as long as I want each day. Yet, there’s also only so much silence I can personally take before I have a strong urge to be ‘where things are happening.’ Maybe this documentary will change that a little. Perhaps.
Oscar winning director Martin Scorsese’s latest movie doesn’t look like it has a single gangster in sight.
Starring Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver as Jesuit priests in the 17th century, the film follows the pair to Japan where they go on a dangerous journey to find their mentor (Liam Neeson) and spread the word about Christianity.
I’m looking forward to finding out what magic Scorsese can create in what looks like a very different film than what we’re used to expecting from the acclaimed director.
