Sonic Silents

About
Returning after a sell-out event at the 2020 Festival we welcome internationally acclaimed Kate Lissauer and her bluegrass band. They bring a new programme of two short silent films by Frank Borzage, (the first Hollywood director to win an Oscar) accompanied with live original music on fiddle, banjo, guitar, dobro, and percussion.
The films evoke a world of hobos, travelling men, cowboys and adventurous women, and the moral and practical dilemmas to which their precarious lives lead them.
