The starting point for this film was the music piece 'Respiration Suite' for a double woodwind quintet, written by the Dutch composer Jurriaan Andriessen (1925-1996) who based his composition on the physiology of human breathing. This piece was rewritten for a string quintet which is performing at the end of a long corridor.

synopsis

It all started with the music piece 'Respiration Suite' for a double woodwind quintet, written by the Dutch composer Jurriaan Andriessen (1925-1996) who based his composition on the physiology of human breathing. This piece was rewritten for a string quintet which is performing at the end of a long corridor. In one long take, the camera moves towards and away from the musicians. But instead of hearing the musical performance, we hear a slow version that is accompanying the subtle rhythm of the movement through the corridor, challenging the audio-visual perception of the viewer.
