Consolations (Love Is an Art of Time) Part 1: The Fugitive Gods
1988 · Documentary · 220 min. · Canada
The absence of knowledge of the Good is madness. Still, in our age, Being manifests itself only in the mode of absence. "It is a time of the gods that have fled and the god that is to come. It is a time of need, because it lies under a double lack and a double Not: the No more of the gods that have fled and the Not yet of the god that is coming". (Heidegger) Elder's most philosophical film ... subtly woven connections ... proceed under a contemplative regime that solicits the memories of the whole cycle in more delicate ways.
