Landscape (1977)

Synopsis

John and his mother painting in the countryside, in summer. His mother has always painted and still does so at ninety years of age. When John and his sisters were small, she used to take them to paint in the countryside, and this was another one of those occasions, though it had been quite unusual since John’s pre-teen years before. The background scenery to the film is also the theme the painters are dealing with: a farmer’s brown field being ploughed by a red and white tractor; a grey silo, green trees and a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. As we reach the end, we get a glimpse of John’s finished painting; another unusual occurrence.
