MUBI proudly presents THE HISTORY OF SOUND, a sweeping, moving and tender romance that spans decades and continents, starring Paul Mescal & Josh O’Connor. 

In 1917, Lionel (Mescal, Aftersun) – a young, talented music student – meets David (O’Connor, Challengers) at the Boston Conservatory, where a connection over a deep love of music leads to a fleeting love affair. They reconnect years later, leading to an impromptu journey through the backwoods of Maine to collect traditional folk songs. This unexpected reunion and the music they preserve will shape the course of Lionel’s life for decades to come.

From director Oliver Hermanus (Living), this is a beautiful and compelling cinematic experience that tells the story of a love that can’t last, a life forever altered, and the ways in which music creates bonds between us that echo for a lifetime.

In theaters Friday, September 19 | AMC Pacific Place 11 | Downtown Seattle
