Werckmeister Harmonies - Region 1 DVD

In Bela Tarr's celebrated film, the arrival of a couple of bizarre circus attractions--the stuffed corpse of a huge whale and a mysterious character with magnetic powers called The Prince--sparks unrest in a provincial Hungarian town. Although composed of only 39 shots, the mesmerizing camerawork of this complex allegory creates subtle suspense and a lingering sense of dread. In Hungarian with English subtitles.
