Preludes gathers three of Peter Mettler’s most poetic films, providing a fascinating example of the wide variation of genres in which he works, as well as an exploration of the roots of his inspiration as an artist. In his first feature, Scissere (1982), Mettler depicts the inner workings of a troubled mind. In the travelogues Eastern Avenue (1985) and Balifilm (1997), Mettler turns his camera onto the world to document various landscapes and people. While thematically diverse, these films share a common approach of intuitively gathered material connected through an experimental and lyrical sensibility.
