Eirik Havnes og Jon Vatne:
POLYFONATURA

Can one make music with nature as the instruments? Four years ago, musician, artist and sound geek Eirik Havnes began his most ambitious project ever, taking him on an epic journey through the Norwegian nature to a creative place no one has ever been before. To make a symphonic masterpiece with the nature as his orchestra.

The documentary film Polyfonatura by director Jon Vatne follows Havnes creative struggle and captures the making of the unique music in an innovating way – crossing time and space. The audience take part in the creativity, from just a fragment of an idea to the finished symphony – sometimes even in the blink of an eye.
