Experiencing Interruptions?

ANTENAE

ANTENAE is a musical film documenting the encounter between a theorbist and a field recordist. Each equipped with their instruments, they explore a cistercian abbey and its surroundings during 2 days and 2 nights. Both the neck of the theorbo and the boom microphone become appendages with which to probe the area and converse with discrete forms of existence: waves, frequencies and ghosts. Gestures and visions intermingle for a last hallucinatory round of song. ANTENAE is the fanciful and sensitive testimony of two practitioners of sound and music, and how these phenomena traverse them.

Director Biography - Myriam Pruvot

Myriam Pruvot is an artist and musician who works and living in Brussels.

She has collaborated as author and performer on numerous radio, musical and choreographic projects in Europe and beyond.
