It snows about the birch
Director Joel - Mauricio Grip Hernández
Countries Sweden
Duration 80 min
Synopsis
This serious fiction - or, might we say, wacky documentary? - which one could at least describe as a documentary fiction carried away by the poetic and engaged dimensions of cinema, was born from a simple question: Why not make a film on freejazz today? We were at Dala Floda, swedish ringing in our ears with Bergmanian force, and then, just as bread dough improvises its form under the influence of yeast, complexity emerged. Two masters of Swedish improvised music travel on a journey with their followers, starting from the north to an improbable no man's land. A tour that is the perfect opportunity for a questioning of culture and identity.
