A unique event combining the oldest surviving animated feature film (Lotte Reininger, 1926) with a new score composed and performed live by Small World Project, the award-winning Montréal-based trio of Sébastien Dufour, Patrick Graham and Frédéric Samson. Using the silhouette animation technique she invented, Reininger created an Arabian Nights’ world of delicate, filigree backgrounds and intricately jointed figures. Similar to Wayang shadow puppets (Java or Bali), hers were animated frame by frame not manipulated in live action. Original prints featured color tinting.
