A Walk Through H

Screening on Film

Directed by Peter Greenaway.
UK, 1978, 16mm, color, 42 min.

Alternately titled The Re-incarnation of an Ornithologist, this eccentric film is based on an ornithological treatise by Greenaway’s fictive alter-ego, Tulse Luper, that describes a mystical journey through the land of H. As Time Out’s Tony Rayns has noted: "you could call it a cross between a vintage Borges ‘fiction’ and a Disney True Life Adventure, but that wouldn’t get close to its humor or the compulsiveness of its Michael Nyman score."
