Rev are proud to present a unique, one off live soundtrack performance of Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then.
This dreamlike film tells a haunting tale of love, faith, exquisite melancholy and the possibility of hope. Drawing on the true story of Leonard and Mary Wood, who two years into their marriage discovered that Mary had a terminal illness. Vowing to combat his wife’s cancer, Leonard created and built a dreamlike house designed to function as a healing machine. This live-action animated film tells a unique, beautiful and moving story of the power of love and the creative mind.
Director Green built a replica of the healing machine in his garden for the film, his own obsessions mirroring those of his subjects, meanwhile his narration moves from romantic whimsy to philosophical wonderment as he details Wood’s story.
Gravity was Everywhere Back Then will be accompanied by a live soundtrack performed by Brent Green, Mike McGinley (Califone), John Swartz, Donna K and Drew Henkles.
