    Incredible live orchestra and stunning visuals

    by mhf34

    The orchestra, foley artists, and incredible narrator help to make this "silent" film one of the most unique filmgoing experiences ever. A definite for art-film lovers and a one-of-a-kind film experience for everyone.

    See it live.

    by Artiste

    I gave this film a "go" rating, because although my experience seeing the live show would be a definite "must go", the film itself would probably rate only a "so-so" on its own, without the orchestra, llive narration and foley artists. The live soundtrack gimmick did indeed set the experience apart and made for an unusually enjoyable night at the theatre. The cast was excellent, especially Maya Lawson.

    When seen with orchestra, live narration, live folly team...

    This is what makes a film into a piece of art. Amazing movie. Fresh, never seen, unpredictable. I feel good watching this movie because the director is giving me his message unfettered by movie ratings, and any other cultural anchors. It's an international film.

    once in a lifetime theatre experience

    you must see this with the live performers if at all possible. the foley artists, narrator, orchestra, and castrato were incredible!

    Brand Upon the Brain - EXCELLENT

    With the combination of beautiful imagery on the screen, intriguing storyline, and amazing live performances - I was completely entranced. The acting on screen, and Udo Kier's acting through narration were top notch entertainment. I will remember this film/performance for a very long time.
