Join us on Sept 6th for a FREE outdoor Stop Motion animation showcase including a live score to the 100-year-old film The Dinosaur and the Missing Link: A Prehistoric Tragedy.
The live performance is curated by the avant garde experimental sound collective, Calgary's own BUG INCISION collective and will include Jonathon Wilcke!
All happening at Daqing Square (197 1 St SW, Calgary, AB T2P 4M4)
"The film starts with a caveman going to give some flowers to a cavegirl. He fails when he hits a tree. However, he keeps going. However, the "Self Appointed Hero" of the story steals the girl's heart. Meanwhile, a gorilla-like ape called "Wild Willie" the Missing Link is watching them. " - Wikipedia
