Description:Béla Tarr's gravely haunting, challenging existential meditation is set in a bleak and wintry Hungarian village which is visited by a distinctly odd traveling circus. With it's strange exhibits of medical oddities, and it's disruptive and provocative manners, the circus has an increasingly destructive impact on the villagers, resulting in an apocalyptic breakdown of civil society. Lars Rudolph, Peter Fitz, and Hanna Schygulla star. 145 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Hungarian and German Dolby Digital stereo; Subtitles: English; bonus film "Family Nest" (1979): featurette. In Hungarian and German with English subtitles.
Werckmeister Harmonies, now available in a stunning 4K UHD Blu-Ray edition from the renowned Criterion Collection, is a cinematic masterpiece directed by Béla Tarr. This haunting and visually arresting film explores themes of chaos, order, and human frailty through its hypnotic black-and-white imagery and long takes. Set in a small Hungarian town on the brink of upheaval, Werckmeister Harmonies follows János Valuska (played by Lars Rudolph), whose gentle spirit becomes entangled in the arrival of a mysterious circus and ensuing unrest. The cast features exceptional performances from actors such as Peter Fitz and Hanna Schygulla?Schygulla being an icon of New German Cinema known for her collaborations with Rainer Werner Fassbinder. Béla Tarr is celebrated for his unique style marked by philosophical depth and slow cinema aesthetics; his previous acclaimed works include Satantango and Damnation. Cinematographer Gábor Medvigy?s artistry shines throughout this film, while composer Mihály Vig provides an evocative score that deepens its atmosphere.
