Hymn 2026
"Short film for the 2026 Bavarian State Exhibition βMusic in Bavariaβ"
Overview
Across generations, a single instrument connects people from different eras - from an emigrating zither player in the Bavarian Forest in 1881, to the persecuted and the lovers of the 20th century, to a deaf young woman in present-day Munich - weaving them into a polyphonic, musical hymn to memory, loss, and solidarity.
