Music though the most transitory of art forms often has the power to create a palpable sense of time and space. Film is especially suited to being enhanced and deepened by music. When the two meet the results can be banal uneven or brilliant - but they're best when they're surprising. Such is the case with Sabbia a collaboration between musician Brant Bjork and filmmaker Kate McCabe. The vastness of the deserts their sweep and scope and giant emptiness waiting to be filled with raw sound has always been prominent in Bjork's music and it finds suitable expression in... McCabe's airy unethered visualization of those parts of California where 'wasted' describes the landscape instead of the people. Conjuring in bits and pieces everything from Van Sant's Gerry to Wilfred Thesiger's Arabian Sands Bjork & McCabe's Sabbia crowds with the empty desert with sights and sounds that seem not so much natural as inevitable.
