Filmmakers Sam Green and Joe Bini
created A Thousand Thoughts as a ‘live
documentary’, in which interviews and
archival footage are accompanied by live
performance by Kronos and live narration by
Green. The result is both a wide-ranging and
thoughtful exploration of a modern music
institution, and a palpable reminder why this
San Francisco-based string quartet remains
at the forefront of their field.
Prolific collaborators, the group has
performed with the likes of David Bowie,
Laurie Anderson and Tom Waits and have
created soundtracks to films such as Dracula
and Requiem for a Dream. Don’t miss this
tribute to a veritable musical icon that will
woo newcomers and reward old fans alike.

The Kronos Quartet might be one of the
world’s most recognisable musical groups,
but you’ve never experienced them like this
before. See these modern icons enter a new
dimension as a documentary feature devoted
to the group is scored live by its own subjects.
