In Pursuit Of Silence (BLU-RAY)

In Pursuit of Silence is a meditative exploration of our relationship with silence, sound and the impact of noise on our lives. With rapid global urbanization, noise pollution – an often overlooked threat to one’s well-being – is an increasing concern. When did we become so loud as a society? Patrick Shen gathers experts, audiologist, and academics to examine not only the cognitive effects of constant noise, but also what we lose culturally when we have less silence. Shot over two years, this critically acclaimed documentary takes us around the globe – from Orfield Labs in Minneapolis, the quietest place on earth, to Mumbai, India, a city that often has noise of over 100 decibels. An immersive cinematic experience, In Pursuit of Silence inspires us to experience silence and celebrate the wonders of our natural world.
