The subject of Time has infinitely fascinated writers, philosophers and scientists. Conceived of by British producer Nicolas McClintock, the award-winning documentary maker wondered how different film directors might view the subject. Ten Minutes Older 'The Trumpet' is one of two feature length compilations of movie shorts by some of the world's most renowned film directors with contributions from Aki Kaurismaki, Victor Erice, Werner Herzog, Jim Jarmusch, Wim Wenders, Spike Lee and Chen Kaige. Each film is linked by the respective musical instrument in its title and the musical interlude (scored by Paul Englishby) between each film connects each short in a gentle manner, allowing each picture to have its own 'frame'. The theme tune from Ten Minutes Older The Trumpet is from legendary Jazz maverick Hugh Masekela and the feature includes contributions from bands including The Eels.
