Monk in Pieces | reż. Billy Shebar, David C. Roberts | Francja, Niemcy, USA | 2025 | 90 min

For more than six decades, Meredith Monk has created work that defies categorization. Blending music, theatre, movement, and visual art, she has developed a singular artistic language unlike any other.

Monk in Pieces is an intimate portrait of an artist who, despite years of misunderstanding and harsh criticism, became one of the most influential voices in contemporary culture. Weaving together archival footage with illuminating conversations featuring Björk, David Byrne, and Philip Glass, the film offers a rare glimpse into Monk’s creative process while exploring her reflections on mortality and the future of her artistic legacy.

A mesmerizing and deeply moving documentary, Monk in Pieces is a celebration of imagination, artistic independence, and the courage to remain uncompromisingly true to one’s vision
