"The best thing i've been to this year" - JD Twitch >> Dazed and Confused review << >> The Scotsman film review << >> Clash Magazine review << >> The Skinny Top 10 events << >> The List: 8 artists to watch << /// Burrowing through that dark vein of German Expressionism and Soviet propaganda films, 85A Collective, in association with The Glue Factory, are proud to present their first self-produced film: ‘Chernozem’ (Black Earth, written and directed by 85A's Judd Brucke). Launching as a fringe event to G.I. 2012, the film has been expanded into a ‘total cinema’ experience- a hair raising Gesamtkunstwerk entitled: ‘CHERNOZEM:KINO!’ Quite literally taken on a surreptitious ride through a series of multi-sensory scenes from the film within a large-scale post-industrial environment, the awe-struck audience can expect mesmerizing mechanical kinetic sculptures, immersive set design, intense lighting + projection, pummeling live music, salvos of sound design and rapid-fire performance…with the terrified cinéaste ultimately ‘projected’ into the film itself! “A desperate cog in a monstrous machine!!” CHUNG! CHUNG! CHUNG! CHUNG! CHUNG!! CHUNG...!! With a very limited capacity of 100 participants per night,taken through in small groups, make sure to book your tickets early. Assembly point and prelude to the show will take place in the Glue Factory bar which will remain open till late after each run for a full programme of music and performances- please check their website for details. www.thegluefactory.org
