Ten Minutes Older - The Trumpet/The Cello DVD

Ten Minutes Older: The Trumpet is one of two feature length compilations of movie shorts by some of the world’s most respected film directors. Fifteen international film directors agreed to participate in the project. Seven movie shorts relate specifically to the film, with contributions from Aki Kaurismaki, Victor Erice, Werner Herzog, Jim Jarmusch, Wim Wenders, Spike Lee and Chen Kaige. Each film is linked by the respective musical instrument in its title and the musical interlude (scored by Paul Englishby) between each film to connect each short in a gentle manner, allowing each picture to have its own 'frame'. The theme tune for Ten Minutes Older ‘The Trumpet’ is from legendary maverick Jazz musician Hugh Masekela.  Ten Minutes Older: The Cello is the second of two feature length compilations of short films exploring each participating director’s personal vision of time. The Cello showcases the contributions of eight further directors – bringing the total contributors to fifteen – The Cello features films from Bernardo Bertolucci, Mike Figgis, Jirí Menzel, István Szabó, Claire Denis, Volker Schlöndorff, Michael Radford and Jean-Luc Godard. Each short is linked by a musical instrument (in this case a cello), allowing each picture to have its own 'frame'. The musical interlude for this film is performed by Claudio Bohorquez and was scored by Paul Englishby.
