Rent The Seasons in Quincy (2016)

Synopsis:

John Berger was one of the most revered writers and broadcasters of the 20th century. The author of many groundbreaking works, including 'Ways of Seeing', 'A Seventh Man' and 'Pig Earth', he has touched the lives of millions, across multiple generations, with his fascinating worldview. "The Seasons in Quincy" is comprised of four essay films, each directed by different members of the Derek Jarman Lab, which combine aspects of Berger's life in the Haute-Savoie with ideas and motifs from his work amid the reflective atmosphere of his mountain home. Together, they form a beautifully paced and meditative feature-length documentary that demonstrates how film can move beyond text and art to offer a multifaceted and multi-layered portrait of an extraordinary human being.
