Birds in the Moon is a fantastical story with live music, soundscapes and video projections that conveys the urgency and hope that the Bird-Mother experiences as she protects her young daughter from menacing forces that threaten to derail their journey - one that embodies themes of freedom, migration and borders. This is a new, mobile chamber opera performed inside and on top of a specially designed shipping container.
 
The Frida Cinema
 
The Frida Cinema is proud to partner with our friends at South East European Film Festival (SEEFest) to present Soviet September, a series of nine acclaimed films representing six decades of cinema from the former Soviet Union (1922 – 1991).

Mirror – Sept 1, 6, 7
Directed by Andrei Tarkovsky | 1974
In an unconventional structure, Mirror depicts the final moments of 40 year old Alexei as he reminisces on his childhood, family, and relationships before dying. Making use of existing newsreels and original footage shot for the film, Andrei Tarkovsky overlaps scenes and incidents into a stream-of-consciousness rhythm of fiction and non-fiction. This personal depiction of memory will take Alexei through the halls of his mind, and half a century of Russian history.
