Prelude (Foreplay/Mourning)

2012 · 18 min

Eight films to music, music-to-poetry, and poetry. The film takes its title from the first shot, a single take set to Fauré's setting of "Au bord de l'eau" by René-François Sully-Prudhomme. The image shows a tree in bloom near a stream, during an extraordinarily long warm streak in February, a dream of spring in the middle of winter outside Chicago. A false spring that doomed the exuberant tree's fruit.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Prelude (Foreplay/Mourning) is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A 2012 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
