“The story of night” is a sixty-minute black-and-white film made by a small camera-crew over 150 nights in many different parts of Europe, when the cities were empty and devoid of life. The film is composed of a collection of quiet, meditative pictures and sounds which my collaborators and I brought back from a long journey through an empty, deserted Europe.
