This week at Barry's
Thursday
Shadow Festival Director Stefan Majakowski, will host an evening on the filming of taboos, the role of archives and the relationship between the past and the present. In addition, how does a filmmaker refer to his own position in society?
Integral screening of Franju’s Le Sang des Betes (Blood of the Beasts) 25 mins., and Resnais’ Nuit et Brouillard (Night and Fog) 30 mins. Two masterpieces, hardly related to what we call documentary these days.
French spoken with English subtitles.
Doors open: 8.30 pm.
Start films: 9 pm.
Entrance: Free.
Available: Bloody Mary's.
Saturday
The Maria & The Mirrors power trio hails from London and combines the three fundamentals: pummeling dancehall, power electronics and PVC. Expect: relentless double drum kit set up. Shards of piercing taped found sounds hanging off a diwali riddim. All acoustic sounds electronically treated. Always danceable. Always banging.
Doors open: 8 pm.
Start show: 9 pm.
Entrance: Free.
