Songs and Dances of the Inanimate World: The Subway(1984)

movie - first aired/released 1984-01-01 - 14 min - audience 8.5

Animation

Directed by Pierre Hébert

In this animation film without words, filmmaker Pierre Hébert and musicians Robert Lepage and René Lussier worked together, and separately, in their respective media. This cinema/music performance recreates, impressionistically, the dehumanizing environment of the urban subway. Drawings etch the outlines of people hurtling through space in underground tunnels. The sound track, elemental and atonal, gives compelling expression to their alienation.
