Any Way the Wind Blows is a film by dEUS' singer-songwriter-director Tom Barman.
[edit] Plot
Antwerp, at the beginning of June. On a sunny friday, eight people dream of having a different life. There's wind and music, police and paranoia, gossip and fighting. There's an old virus, an astrayed frisbee, a dead horse, and a mysterious person called Windman. In the evening there's a party…
While the movie has not a real narrative, it consists more of scenes that have loose connections with each other. The people meet each other, leave each other. It is a brilliant mosaic of 24 hours in a city, a terrific soundtrack (that has songs ranging from Magnus to Herbie Hancock and from JJ Cale to Yazoo) and excellent performances.
