A question on a short film..."Girl and a Bicycle"

Girl on a Bicycle

Romero Britto

1992

I post this film to ask a question...how much does a music score affect the viewing of the film i.e., the viewers experience and interpretation. Could this film, for example, stand well without a music bed?

Girl and a Bicycle

by

Jon Behrens and Rasha Refaie

1995

"This film was made in collaboration with fellow filmmaker and friend Rasha Refaie.The film was inspired by a dream that Rasha had about a girl, a bicycle and a silver colored egg. The viewer sees Rasha peddling all over Seattle through city streets, parks, all over and ultimately ending up a graveyard were she begins to experience the nosebleed of her life. This film was going to be the first in a series of films based on Rasha's dreams; however, shortly after this film was completed Rasha moved to New York City and this was the only film that was made. Rubato composed the films sound track."
