Eoghan is a sound recordist who is returning to Ireland for the first time in 15 years. His reason for returning is a job offer: to find and record places free from man-made sound. His quest takes him away from towns and villages into remote terrain.
Pacific Rim it ain't, but this docu-like curio offers tranquility in spades. An aural bath of a film that will soothe troubled minds.
The storytelling is mournful and enigmatic but in its quiet, inscrutable way, this is a beautiful piece of film-making.
Irish writer-director Pat Collins's ideas-driven drama takes us on a very quiet journey into sound.
There are interesting images, some of them from the archives, but...the film got nowhere that stuck in my memory.
