Non-Verbal Films



Director Godfrey Reggio, Jon Kane and Composer Philip Glass have collaborated on several films that are known for their striking images that examine the global effect of the human presence. What makes these films unique is the lack of spoken dialogue. The visual documentation is instead supported by Glass's riveting musical backdrop which complements the patterns of industrial automation, human behavior and the catastrophic ripples of modern industry which threaten nature.
