Silences explores what we mean by silence and what silence means to us. Interweaving silences, sounds and voices, it reveals the rich pleasures and mysteries of experiences without noises or words.
Listening to Silence layers interweaves, connects, filters, composes and decomposes interviews, ambiences and music.
