https://youtube.be/4-d-c6ZPEBg

In this rural drama, a woman plots to escape the remote place where she lives with her woodcutter husband. A mixture of drone, folk and field recordings lend the story a sense of tension and dread. Has the forest placed a curse on the couple due to the husband's actions, or is there some other dark undercurrent to their marriage?

2: The Blind Prophet.
Written for The Way to Shadow Garden (1954. Directed by Stan Brakhage)
https://youtu.be/vye0NaLZ4aU

Synths and samples evoke the shadowy forces of an era which spawned McCarthyism and Project MK-Ultra. Was the protagonist a subject in a secret government mind control experiment? Back in his urban apartment, strange phenomena, radio propaganda and a book of Greek tragedy propel him on a terrifying quest for enlightenment. "
