Aber das Wort Hund bellt ja nicht

The Schlippenbach Trio (Paul Lovens,Evan Parker, Alexander von Schlippenbach) exists since forty years and they are part of the european Freejazz history. Each year in december they go on the „Winterreise“ to play their sound of divergence, catharsis & explosion. The film „But the word dog doesn`t bark“ is shoot over the period of four years at the same Jazzclub. Each year the camera focuses in a long single frame shot on one of the players. In the last year of the performance shooting, in 2010, a handheld singleframe shot combines the improvisation of the three individuals in one picture."But the word dog doesn`t bark" is a film about the indiviudals of the trio, improvisation in music and film and the possibilities of transforming sound into pictures.
