“Why Does This Appear?” is a silent musical film, merging fiction and documentary, performance and storytelling, musical and cinematographic narrative expressions. Interdisciplinary nature of this project motivates its original goal – a perfect balance between the mediums.
With the disappearing line between real and imaginary past experiences, the subjective nature of memory reveals itself. “Why Does This Appear?” is a film where the surreal world of silhouettes intertwines with a documentary: a kind of illusion whose actors are the performers of Vilnius contemporary music ensemble “Synaesthesis”.
