Church of the Wind

About This Movie

So, 'Church of the Wind' is quite the meditative piece. It documents the painstaking restoration of Tadao Ando's Chapel of the Wind, which, if you know anything about Ando, you know it’s a work of architectural poetry. The film has this slow, almost hypnotic pacing, capturing the slow decay with mold and moss creeping over the concrete. It’s like time stands still, then suddenly, with that first open door, everything shifts back into life. There's a sense of reverence throughout, as if the chapel itself is a character—eroded yet enduring. The atmosphere is thick with history and introspection. It's not flashy, but it's got a raw beauty that draws you in, making you think about the passage of time in both architecture and our lives.

Focus on architectural themes and decay. · Unique approach to storytelling through time and restoration. · Atmospheric visuals complement the meditative pacing.
