Niemy movie
During an evening with Niemy Movie, musicians and actors will perform live music and dubbing for silent films. Productions of world cinema from decades ago will take on colors and humor in their interpretation. The artists will illustrate them with music in many genres, and give the characters individual voices.
Each member of Niemy Movie is a multi-instrumentalist, which means the ensemble moves freely in various conventions — from classics to entertainment, from theatrical pathos to cartoon slapstick. The result is a mosaic of colors and emotions, colors that go beyond the shades of gray on the screen. The ensemble’s repertoire includes adventure films, horrors, comedies, drama, short and feature length films.
At Hashtag Lab, Niemy Movie will present selected scenes from such films as Alice in Wonderland, The Mask of Zorro, The Lost World, The Phantom of the Opera, Nosferatu, The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari and A Trip to the Moon.
This time, thanks to rotation of invited guests, the ensemble will also “metamorphose” on stage, providing listeners and spectators with additional impressions.
