Sounds of Silents: Knowmovement's Electronic Film Festival August 24, 2007

For the last two years, hundreds have packed into Union Square's parking lot to watch the KNOWmovement Orchestra perform original live scores to the classic silent films Man with a Movie Camera and Battleship Potemkin. This year, KNOWmovement broadens its scope to include both film and music from a handful of New England's most talented filmmakers and musicians. The Sounds of Silents Film Festival will comprise eight to ten original short silent films by local filmmakers and visual artists, each scored by a local musician or musical group. Films will be photographic, experimental, narrative or even documentary in nature. So join us for an evening of new and inspired creativity that’s guaranteed to provoke, inspire and entertain.
