In Pursuit of Silence

Streaming video - 2017

A meditative exploration of our relationship with silence, sound and the impact of noise on our lives. Patrick Shen gathers experts, audiologists, and academics to examine not only the cognitive effects of constant noise, but also what we lose culturally when we have less silence. Official Selection at the **SXSW Film Festival**. Nominated for Best Documentary at the **Atlanta Film Festival** and at the **Cleveland International Film Festival.** *"A remarkable documentary that paradoxically proves that when it comes to silence, there is a lot to be said as well as a great deal to be shown." - Kenneth Turan, **Los Angeles Times*** *"A beguiling, meditative and elegantly photographed documentary." - Joe Morgenstern, **Wall... Street Journal***
