🎬 Infra&Ultra Cinema Club and Imaginary Forces Events present:
FILMS FOR THE IMAGINARY MUSIC OF MIKHAIL BASOV
🎥 Monday, November 3, at Craft Theatre.
📌 Friends, please note: our gatherings now take place on Mondays!
Sometimes the world begins to sound a little different — as if an invisible melody appears in the air.
Mikhail Basov knows how to hear it — in the intertwining of order and chance — and turns that sound into cinema, where everything, from movement to its shadow, becomes part of the story.
His films don’t tell; they happen — quietly, precisely, as if the frames discover themselves.
This is a rare and little-studied field of subjective experimental “documentary,” where trust in chance becomes a special form of poetry.
Each film is like a game, where the unpredictable sets the rhythm, and the viewer suddenly hears what usually goes unnoticed.
Screening program:
• Free Movements
• A Film for Imaginary Music
• The Stair Dance of a Plastic Bottle
• Out of Autofocus
• La Bagatelle
• Short Circuits
