Like
a still camera catching the quiet moments of life, A Movement in D Minor
takes us into those places in the heart where there are no words. A man
and a woman move through the moments of their life, coming together, having
a child, losing their way, stepping apart, struggling alone. But always
the music of Satie connects their heartbreak with tenderness and hope.
What story do you see and hear in this hauntingly beautiful glimpse of
a family in change, in movement?
