"D'Est" by Chantal Akerman in Music
People queueing, waiting for a bus or train. People walking through snow-covered streets lugging bags. People who stay silent, because history has taught them to. These are characters from the film D’Est (1993) by Chantal Akerman. In it, the Belgian director captures the reality in the former Soviet territories after the fall of the Wall. From summer to winter, she filmed people, buildings and landscapes, and assembled them into an impressionist poem. When cellist Sonia Wieder-Atherton saw a passage from the film while Rachmaninoff’s cello sonata was playing in the background, she immediately knew that this footage and music have something to tell each other. Together with Akerman, she created a haunting cinematic concert in which D’Est resonates poetically with music by Schnittke, Martinů, Chopin and other composers from Russia and Eastern Europe.
