A RAY OF SUN

Two Brothers on their Journey towards the Unknown

scene from the film A RAY OF SUN
Renzo and Roberto Rossellini - Two Brothers on their Journey towards the Unknown, sharing a life together. The older one finds a new way to represent reality in film. The younger one expresses this film reality in music. At a mature age both brothers became aware of the shortcomings that limited their arts. From this they drew a conclusion - each one in his own way.
