Director’s note

The title theme is built from electric pianos answering one another; the percussion comes from real sounds of pickaxes and stone-cutting tools, to evoke the building site.

Minimoog and synths for the “happy city”, prepared piano for the architect’s final years, and Vol de nuit for the end credits.
