MUSIC FOR FILMS

New York

This is music for an expiremental Super 8 documentary clip by Ralf © Schuster. It shows his view of the 9/11 tragedy that took place in Manhattan in 2001. Schuster, who is an independent movie maker from Germany, stayed in New York as a tourist and decided to do his holiday pics with an old Super 8 camera. As the tragedy occured, he just continued his work. - Stefan Hetzel, musician and composer, was Schuster's fellow traveller. Years after (in 2004), he composed a soundtrack for Schuster's movie. The XviD-encoded movie can be downloaded from the Internet Archive. Here are some screenshots:
