Autumn from „The Four Seasons”

„The Autumn” is the last film miniature, after „Spring”, „Summer” and „Winter”, to the music of Antonio Vivaldi’s „The seasons”. In those film impressions, the seasons are related to the phases of human life. This particular film shows the ‘autumn’ side of man. Despite some stabilisation, man tries to be active and creative, taking advantage of all his experience and mature thoughts. However, the rhythm of his everyday activities is more and more often interrupted by his memories. The atmosphere and shade of those memories are associated with the music and thus stored in the memory forever.
