Production details

Three Tales, by Beryl Korot and Steve Reich, is a documentary video opera that recalls three events from the twentieth century: the crash of the Hindenburg Zeppelin, the nuclear bomb testings at Bikini Atoll and the cloning of Dolly the Sheep. A unique fusion of music, cinema and documentary featuring archive footage, audiovisual documentary and interviews with leading scientists including Marvin Minsky and Richard Dawkins, Three Tales tells the story of technology's growing dominance in the twentieth century, and its evolving relationship with man.
