Die grosse Stille [Into Great Silence]
Film cycle: Philip Gröning
In the silence that reins in the monastery at Grand Chartreuse, Groning found the raw material to build something fascinating, where the contemplative slow pace of daily life imposes a haunting rhythm. The word ‘atypical’ was invented to describe this film which is replete with wonderful images of another time and place. Prizewinner at Sundance.
