The Echo Park Film Center has already produced similar projects in Tokyo, Rotterdam, London, Seoul, Berlin, Mexico City, Vancouver and elsewhere, each time discovering something new about the city in its diversity as well as about the film art’s poetic potential that becomes available within this project not only to cinematographers but also to the representatives of other fields of art. Although the project draws upon the “City Symphony” genre practiced by the great Walter Ruttmann and Dziga Vertov in the beginning of the twentieth century, “Sound We See” reaches further in its concept by involving the different personalities and presenting the city as a truly vibrant, dynamically functioning organism.
