«The End Of Time» di Peter Mettler: proiezione cinematografica

SUNDAY 15 OCTOBER | 20:45

Peter Mettler, Switzerland / Canada 2012, original English version with French subtitles, running time: 109 minutes

An exploratory journey into the elusive subject of time and the limits of the expressible, The End Of Time takes us from the particle accelerator at CERN in Geneva, where researchers probe time regions invisible to the human eye, to the lava flows that have destroyed all but one of the houses on the southern side of the Big Island of Hawaii, from the decay of Detroit's historic downtown, to a Hindu funeral rite that takes place not far from the place where the Buddha attained enlightenment. A film about the origin, state and transformations of all forms of existence, which drags the spectator into a kind of whirlwind that, supported by a subtle soundtrack, produces an almost psychedelic effect.

Event promoted in collaboration with the Circolo del Cinema Bellinzona.
