While watching films in public is a communal experience, some screenings of the documentary involve audience members cocooned in headphones, with the sound being mixed live in the theater.
Poet Fred Moten talks about this in the film, saying, “The most sort of dominant sonic experiences I have are these ghost sounds, the sounds of people who are gone.” One noise Green encountered while making his film proved revelatory. Composer Philip Glass was playing one of his piano pieces for Green, when suddenly a fly started buzzing around the microphone. Most directors might have yelled “cut,” but not Green.
