Van Morrison

La película, un drama de madurez ambientado en los tumultos de la Irlanda del Norte de finales de los años 60, sigue al joven Buddy mientras navega por un paisaje de lucha obrera, cambios culturales radicales y violencia sectaria. Buddy sueña con un futuro glamuroso que lo aleje de los problemas, pero, mientras tanto, encuentra consuelo en su carismático padre y su madre, y en sus alegres abuelos.

Para Billie y Nico, la vida con su padre es una montaña rusa de alegría e inquietud. Cuando está en las garras del alcohol, las lágrimas fluyen y su aparentemente idílica vida familiar se derrumba. Su madre, en su mayoría ausente e irresponsable, tampoco es de mucha ayuda. Pero su amistad con Malik, un chico de la edad de Billie, los libera de sus grilletes. Juntos se embarcan en un viaje lleno de intensos momentos de libertad. El colorido y emotivo mundo de los tres jóvenes está representado en imágenes caleidoscópicas en blanco y negro, lo que abre espacio para sus propias nociones de la infancia. El cuento de Alexandre Rockwell retrata un profundo sentido de solidaridad y un profundo amor: por el cine y Billie Holiday, y también por el riesgo y la aventura.

John Lee Hooker was one of the greatest bluesmen of the 20th century. Born into poverty and racial segregation, he lived through a monumental time in American history. This is the story of a cultural icon, and his far-reaching impact on popular music, told in his own words and those of his family and closest collaborators. Interviews with Keith Richards, Van Morrison, Carlos Santana, Bonnie Raitt and Robert Cray tell how an illiterate man from the rural and impoverished backwaters of the Mississippi Delta influenced their own musical journey. We reveal his part in bringing the Blues to a new generation of young British musicians and how, in turn, those musicians introduced young, mainstream Americans to their own cultural heritage.

Another short was 3 American LPs, which was the first film I did with Peter Handke. It was a film about American music, about three pieces of three LPs. There was a song by Van Morrison, another by Harvey Mandel, and one of Credence Clearwater Revival. It was mainly the music and some shots out of a car, landscapes out of the car window. And it had a little bit of commentary – dialogue between Peter and me about American music and about how American rock music was about emotion and images instead of sounds. That is to say, about a kind of phenomenon, that it was in a way a kind of film music, but without a moving picture. It was a 12-minute film and it was never shown. – Wim Wenders
