“건물들이 말을 할 수 있다면, 우리에게 무슨 말을 할까?” 건물들의 영혼에 관한 이 3D 프로젝트 은 이 질문에 대한 여섯 가지 다채로운 대답들을 보여준다. 영화 속에서 건물들은 인공 구조물의 관점에서 조망한 인간의 삶에 대한 이야기를 독백하듯 풀어놓는다. 빔 벤더스, 로버트 레드포드를 포함한 여섯 명의 감독들은 각각 상징적이고 특징적인 건축물을 택해 자기만의 스타일과 예술적 방식으로 접근했다. 그들이 우리에게 보여주는 건축물들은 인간의 사유와 행위의 물질적 현현이다. 모더니티의 상징인 베를린 필하모닉, 사상의 왕국 러시아국립도서관, 세상에서 가장 인도적인 할든교도소, 그리고 세상을 뒤흔든 과학 이론들의 탄생지인 소크연구소, 예술과 삶이 공존하는 미래적 공간 오슬로 오페라하우스, 그리고 현대문화기구 퐁피두센터. 은 이 랜드마크들이 우리 시대의 문화를 반영하고 우리의 집단적 기억을 보존하는 방식을 조명한다.

It does not get much bigger than ‘Songs of Earth’. Margreth Olin has created a stunning, cinematic work about life, death, nature and about simply being present in the world. With her native Norway’s dizzyingly beautiful mountain landscapes as its monumental backdrop, Olin embarks on an existential journey with her own ageing parents as the human yardstick out in the vast expanses. Here, their family has always lived side by side with nature. Even when the earth’s primordial forces have shown their most merciless side. Her parents’ love and lifelong loyalty bear quiet witness to how surroundings and inner space resonate with each other. But not even the most rock-solid mountain is unchanging – and certainly not in times like ours. The level of detail in Olin’s lyrical and visionary poem to her homeland is almost beyond anything seen on the big screen. And that is most definitely where ‘Songs of Earth’ should be experienced.
