    Cine-concert Metropolis

    Metropolis, dir. Fritz Lang, Germania, 1926

    Original music & live interpretation: Edison Studio (IT)

    Musicians: Mauro Cardi, Luigi Ceccarelli, Alessandro Cipriani, Vincenzo Core, Andrea Veneri cu vocile artiștilor Anna Clementi, Martin Figura, Eric Moser, Marco Noia și Andreas Otto.

    Set in the future, Metropolis is a perfect, super-technologized city where people live happily. But appearances are deceptive. Behind it lies a huge gap between the upper class and the workers who toil endlessly to sustain this world. Is mediation possible between these two social categories? The film is based on the novel of the same name written by Thea von Harbou in 1925. A story imagined 100 years ago is just as relevant today. After a turbulent history, in which the original version seemed lost, Metropolis was digitally restored in 2010.

    Cine-concert A Page of Madness

    A Page of Madness, dir. Teinosuke Kinugasa, Japonia, 1926

    Original music & live interpretation: Irina-Margareta Nistor & CelloFun

    A Page of Madness is an experimental silent thriller. Considered lost for 45 years, the film is the product of an avant-garde group of artists from Japan, known as Shinkankakuha (School of New Perceptions), who sought to surpass naturalistic representation in film, being influenced by German expressionism cinema. The event will take place on Tuesday, June 18, starting at 6:00 p.m., at Cinema Dacia - https://tiff.eventbook.ro/
     
    The action of the film is set in a psychiatric institution in rural Japan. In the midst of a torrential rain, a caretaker walks the halls of an asylum populated by patients with mental illnesses... Using extravagant superimpositions, hallucinatory sequences, and fast and insistent visual structures, the film builds an intense and claustrophobic atmosphere. Neither pro nor anti-madness, not at all traditional, but not purely modern, A Page of Madness is lush and ambiguous, fully deserving its cult film status.
