ALABAMA (2000 LIGHT YEARS)
Deutschland 1968 – Director: Wim Wenders – Original language: German – Subtitles: None – Length: 21 min.
A journey unfolds to the rhythm of a single song, shifting in tone and meaning as it reappears in different voices. Between movement and stillness, ALABAMA explores how music reshapes perception - where the same melody opens up entirely new worlds depending on how, and by whom, it is heard. J.N.
