Harvest Films | 2016
Silence / Sound is a collaboration between Pat Collins and Tadhg O’Sullivan that presents a unique sonic version of Collins’s 2012 feature film ‘Silence’.
The film tells the story of Eoghan, a sound recordist who is returning to Ireland for the first time in fifteen years. The reason for his return is a job: to record landscapes free from man-made sound. His quest takes him to remote terrain, away from towns and villages. Throughout his journey, he is drawn into a series of encounters and conversations which gradually divert his attention towards a more intangible silence, one that is bound up with the sounds of the life he had left behind.
Paring back what was already a sparse, meditative work, Silence / Sound is an immersive journey through the sonic geography of Eoghan’s route and into the sonic memories that emerge from it.
First Edition of 500 copies each one hand numbered.
Special foldout booklet printed on heavy uncoated board
with full colour still images from the film.
