Schubert’s traumatic motifs provided me with a special opportunity to think about man’s perpetual alienation. And to ask whether art can provide a refuge when the very fundamentals of life are questioned?
The video-installation film cells show actual residents in a Hungarian refugee camp. The time spent with them was an inspiring experience, which, with the help of a few telling scenes, confronts the problems of fundamental existence that countless people have. When I withdrew from the deprivation and hopelessness of their world, I was seized by such deep shock that I could no longer account for it with words, only with music. The refugees’ generally uncertain and structure-less existence, involuntarily slipping into a state of vegetation, accentuates the nightmare and reality behind the music." Kornél Mundruczó, director
