MURCH is a portrait of Academy Award winning editor and sound designer Walter Murch, whose unique approach to an invisible craft has fueled a visible following.

As one of the original members of American Zoetrope Studios, he has taken part in the evolution of American cinema. Walter explains his unconventional approach to his craft, leading us through the productions and experiences that have influenced his methods and techniques in filmmaking.

...this gorgeously edited film should be mandatory addition to film-school curricula…
