Barbet Schroeder’s debut feature transposes the myth of Icarus to Europe’s drug-fueled, free-spirited ’60s—set to the music of Pink Floyd. Lensed by Academy Award-winning cinematographer Néstor Almendros (Days of Heaven), More dreamily observes the cataclysmic-yet-romantic allure of heroin addiction between a German mathematics student, Stefan (Klaus Grünberg), and the American girl, Estelle (Mimsy Farmer), he follows to Ibiza. Schroeder neither romanticizes nor wholly condemns their doomed romance, but depicts their story with a sense of fatalism. Even the soundtrack gratifies the whims of the characters, who tune Pink Floyd’s songs in and out through radios and cassette players, transforming the music into spellbinding ambience.
