French photographers Claude and Marie-José Carret first came to Klenovec
in 1984. They were immediately fascinated by the life of the local musicians
and have returned every year since, capturing generations of the town’s
famous musicians. Their work reveals the depth of Klenovec’s musical roots
and how characters from the past live on in the memories and practices of
local people. The short ethnographic film Rooted Musicians from Klenovec
depicts a joint effort of the French photographers and a Czech anthropologist
to repatriate images to the places where they were taken.
