Beautiful

I just saw the 2000 Movie Werckmeister Harmonies, with music by Mihaly Vig. I found it quite moving, and am at a loss for words to say more. So I’ll just say: it is beautiful beyond my words. I found it via Metacritics’s All-TIme High Scores. Here is some music, and the opening sequence.

Thank you! I needed some new tunes to listen to. By any chance do you know if there is a place I could buy the soundtrack? I sleuthed around a bit and couldn't find anything.

Thanks for the pointer! I watched it this morning and though I didn't love it as much as you did, it's certainly a good film and unlike most of my ordinary diet. I'd already known it was a critic's favourite, but your pointer sorta pushed me over the edge.
