Erik K Skodvin - Anbessa by miasmah published on 2020-08-17T13:42:03Z "Erik K Skodvin's first solo film score evokes otherwordly dreamscapes that capture the atmosphere of the film Anbessa (2019), shot in Ethiopia by director Mo Scarpelli." Listen to the title track from the LP here. Pre-order in link. As a "creative" documentary the film follows Asalif, a 10 year old imaginative boy caught between the ancient and the new, navigating modernization on his own terms. Asalif tries to make sense of things while living in a shed on the outskirts of Addis Ababa with his mom. A place where capitalism and “progress” is closing in on all fronts, and threatening their lifestyle. By becoming a lion (anbessa) he can fight back against the forces outside of his control. Watch the film on MUBI from August 26th (for one month). Also available for rent or purchase through Video on demand.
