The Underground Cathedral

The Tunnel’s end

The Tunnel’s End attempts to capture the dichotomies and paradoxes of
beauty and sentiment, intellectualism and cynicism, hope and despair. The
film begins with the sounds of passage through a busy Paris underground
walkway. A man is heard selling a newspaper made by the homeless as
well as a woman selling trinkets including a small squeaking toy dog as
one moves in the direction of a solo violinist who is by no means an
amateur. This leads into an original contemporary classical piece which was composed on pianos in Paris and Manhattan several years before a digital orchestral arrangement was added in Barcelona and the video film clip was later edited in a Polish TV studio.
