The Mammoth’s Homecoming, a Composition of Th. W. Adorno in the Year 1941

Directed by Alexander Kluge

With Sir Henry and Lilith Stangenberg

Adorno is not just a theorist and philosopher, he was also a composer and student of Alban Berg in Vienna. The text of the short song goes: “What’s driving there, on a cart and stretches out his long trunk?/ It is a mammoth! It is a mammoth! It is a mammoth which wants to go home.”
