Storm De Hirsch - Mythology for the Soul
DVD with 15 films by Storm De Hirsch. Second release of our New York Film-makers' Cooperative Collection
OFFICIAL RELEASE SEPTEMBER 3, 2020
A major work in terms of style, structure, graphic invention, image manipulation and symbolic ritual. Short abbreviated dream-like moments, fused together by the tension and the dynamic of motion-picture time.
-Stan Vanderbeek
A further exploration into the color of ritual, the color of thought; a journey through the underworld of sensory derangement. A very beautiful work! The abstractions drawn directly on film are like the paintings of Miro; moving at full speed to the rhythm of an African beat.
-Dominique Noguez
Dedicated to all the magic makers of the world who weave a talisman for man's rebirth in his house of breath.
-Storm De Hirsch
