In clear opposition to mainstream movies and blockbusters “Art House” is a cinematic genre which has always given freedom of expression to the director’s vision. Independently produced on a low budget, Arthouse movies steer clear of special effects and stars relying, rather, on the actors’ performances, a sophisticated aesthetic and a narrative which often leans towards symbolism. With the elegance of cellos, delicate touches of piano, unbridled symphonic flights, this playlist invites an intimate, complex response to match the stripped back, introspective mood of the genre.
