Curator’s clip description
Hearing music, Della (Urshula Yovich) gets up and finds Alvin (Trevor Jamieson) playing guitar. She watches him before returning to the bedroom. Alvin smiles shyly. No words are said.
Curator’s notes
The beautiful dramatic tension in this film, a wordless love story, is expressed through the music of the main character, and music becomes central to expressing the inner worlds of these characters.
Romaine Moreton, curator
