This is a film by a classical musician-turned-film maker. In this, her first feature length film, Lina Chamie shares her common view of cinema and music; that is, as art forms where both occur during a given span of time and where both are marked by rhythm.
In this film, the director seals the union of the two art forms-film & music, (1) in its plot: basically, three days in the life of a young male clarinet player & (2)in its structure-set in three scenes or is it three movements of an orchestral arrangement? The young musician's story overlaps with a story of artistic creativity.
The movie achieves its goal of comparing music and movies to a great degree. This is a poetic film, one with little dialogue, and lots of music and imagery. However, this is not at all negative. or boring. The film features beautiful symphonic music from the likes of Schubert and Bach.
