Monk in Pieces

The visionary composer and performer Meredith Monk overcame a childhood eye condition and a hostile critical establishment to become one of the great artistic pioneers of her generation. In the midst of her latest creation, Indra's Net, Monk faces mortality, questioning whether such singular work can be performed without her. Featuring interviews with Björk and David Byrne, Monk in Pieces is a mosaic that mirrors Monk's own style, and illuminates her wildly original vocabulary of sound and imagery.
