New York Premiere — Live Cinema Concert
Join Ukrainian-Canadian composer and pianist Taras Luka for a special Live Cinema Concertfeaturing his original score performed live in synchronization with Dziga Vertov’s legendary 1929 silent masterpiece Man With a Movie Camera.
Produced in Ukraine by VUFKU and filmed in Kyiv, Odesa, and Kharkiv, Man With a Movie Camera is internationally recognized as one of the most influential films ever created. In the prestigious Sight & Sound critics’ poll, it was ranked among the greatest films of all time and has been recognized as one of the most important documentary films in cinema history.
Created without actors, costumes, sets, or a traditional script, the film captures a single day in the life of a modern city. Through radical editing, rhythmic montage, and bold visual experimentation, Dziga Vertov transformed everyday reality into a dynamic cinematic symphony.
In this special presentation, the silent film is accompanied by an original live score by Taras Luka, transforming the screening into an immersive audiovisual experience where silent cinema meets contemporary musical performance.
This New York premiere offers audiences a rare opportunity to rediscover a masterpiece of Ukrainian avant-garde cinema through a powerful dialogue between film and live music.
