| Summary |
In July 2005, filmmaker Scott Hicks started shooting a documentary about the composer Philip Glass to celebrate his 70th anniversary in 2007. Over the next 18 months, Hicks followed Glass across three continents - from his annual ride on the Coney Island 'Cyclone' roller coaster, to the world premiere of his new opera in Germany and in performance with a didgeridoo virtuoso in Australia.Allowed unprecedented access to Glass's working process, family life, spiritual teachers and long time collaborators, Hicks gives us a unique glimpse behind the curtain into the life of a surprising and complex man. Glass: A Portrait of Philip In Twelve Parts is a remarkable mosaic portrait of one of the greatest - and at times controversial - artists of this or any era.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Kino Films and Independent Media, in association with Kojo Pictures, present an Ava Bridge Motion Pictures production of a Scott Hicks film. Executive Producers: Kerry Heysen and Roger Sexton. ABC Executive Producer: Amanda Duthie |
