The Etude du Cinéma de l’Ecole de Barcelona (a short-lived group that appeared in Spain in the 1960s) offers the opportunity to consider the distrust of the avant-gardes with regard to narrative. The lacunar narration whose principle the School of Barcelona adopts goes against the traditional narrative and its quest for coherence and continuity. She invites the viewer to make the disconcerting experience of unbinding and emptiness. Such an approach involves an ethical posture. The Barcelona School follows in the footsteps of a modernity that intends to move away from an alienating authoritarian discourse and claims to make the spectator a partner in creation.

This film is a collaboration between Neil Henderson and visual artist Polly Read. The film documents drawings the audience made during a performance given by the musician Evan Parker. Polly Read gave each member of the audience a small booklet and pencil; on each page a circle has been drawn. The audience responded to the music over the course of the performance by drawing in the book. The film animates these images bringing them back into conflict with one of the musical pieces performed on the night. The results are a mixture of abstract marks, impressionistic portraits, and observations about other audience members. To what extent can, do these drawings reflect the music played during the evening?
