The End of Time

Peter Mettler
2012 | 1 h 53 min
Visionary filmmaker Peter Mettler takes on the elusive subject of time, and once again seeks to film the unfilmable on a journey that takes him to a particle accelerator in Switzerland and lava flows in Hawaii, disintegrating inner-city Detroit and a Hindu funeral rite near the place of Buddha’s enlightenment. Mettler dares to dream the movie of the future while also immersing us in the wonder of the everyday.

Selected in 11 festivals worldwide including Busan, Locarno, TIFF and IDFA.
