Laurie Anderson Saint Joan of Arc Basilica, Paris

About This Movie

Laurie Anderson's 'Saint Joan of Arc Basilica' is quite a unique offering in the music genre. Set inside a deconsecrated church in Paris, the atmosphere feels both reverent and experimental. Anderson's performance captures this blend perfectly, weaving in themes of spirituality and creativity in a way that feels almost otherworldly. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to sink into each note, each spoken word. Visually, the practical effects and lighting complement the space, enhancing the ethereal quality of her work. It's a meditative experience that stands apart from standard concert films, playing with the boundaries of music and performance art. A fascinating exploration of artistry in an unexpected setting.
