Documentary: ”Färgklang” / ”Color tone”

Three visionaries in a unique artistic meeting

With an empty white canvas and a black grand piano as a starting point, the interaction between the artist Claes Eklundh and the musician Hans Pålsson begins in the filmmaking hands of the Swedish filmdirector and cinematographer Jan Troell.
With a sense of intimacy Troell let the audience come close to the two artists in the most fascinating creative moments.
They both openly talk about the driving force, doubt, about creation as a survival life strategy (Eklundh), about sadness, emptiness and about the ugliness and beauty of both life and art.
