Early Films 1
Before Peter Greenaway made his name with the international arthouse hit The Draughtsman's Contract the had established a reputation for highly innovative and witty short films. The subject matter varies widely: the potted history of 37 people who have fallen to their deaths from windows (Windows), a sequence of 92 maps to guide a dead ornithologist on his way into the afterlife (A Walk Through H), but all the films are immensely playful and take pleasure in cataloguing the absurd. Michael Nyman started his career with Peter Greenaway and his music can be heard on A Walk Through H.
The titles on this DVD are: A Walk Through H, H is for House, Windows, Intervals, Dear Phone and Water Wrackets.
