Description
This boxset brings together the key works of Jonas Mekas, one of the most prolific avant-garde filmmakers. Born in Lithuania in 1992, chased west by soviet and nazi forces, Mekas and his brother spent 4 years in German displaced persons camps before arriving in New York in 1949, where he started shooting 16mm films on exile, military domination and poetic freedom. He thus developed an epic, lyrical and intensely personal diary style of film making
