Celebrated director Godfrey Reggio (KOYAANISQATSI) returns after ten years with a new experimental film unlike any other from his already daring career: a bardic fairy tale about the end of the world and the beginning of a new one, tinged with apocalyptic comedy, rapturous cinematography, unforgettable vistas, and the innocence and hopes of a new generation. Executive produced by Steven Soderbergh, featuring an electrifying score composed by Reggio's longtime collaborator Philip Glass with additional vocals from Sussan Deyhim, and co-directed by veteran editor and filmmaker Jon Kane, ONCE WITHIN A TIME is the indie revelation of the year. Film Center exclusive.
