Sinopse
An enchanting, immersive portrait of grass waving in the wind. In Edinburgh's Holyrood Park a large variety of grasses (graminoids) grow freely to great heights. Their beauty is unlocked as they collectively bow for the stormy weather. Graminoids follows the movement of grass on a wide range of scales. People and birds enter the screen, but remain in the background of the ballet that is performed on the symphony of wind. The use of effects on the black and white video footage was kept to a minimum, and music was composed directly from the wind recordings, employing cutting-edge modular synthesis. This establishes a unique perspective on the interplay between grass and wind.
