The Seasons in Quincy: Four Portraits of John Berger
A fascinating collective effort, The Seasons in Quincy: Four Portraits of John Berger is a frank exploration of four different insights into John Berger’s life, thoughts and writing. The focus varies between an analysis of his thought processes, politics, passions, right through to his form of interacting with people. Filmmakers, such as Tilda Swinton and Colin MacCabe, compose a personal and intimate portrait of the reclusive artist, painter and critic who passed away in January 2017. Tied together with a meditative score from Simon Fisher Turner, The Seasons in Quincy is a loving snapshot of an avant-garde icon.
Also screening on Sat 25 Feb, 8.45pm
