In this program entitled "Not so silent films", we will watch in PREMIERE SEANCE (Lumière Brothers, F 1895) the films that two inventive photo industrialists from Lyon presented in 1895 during the first screening in history. We will watch early special effects in LES PAPILLONS JAPONAIS (Japanese Butterflies, Segundo de Chomón, F 1908), the silent comedy BEHIND THE SCREEN (Charles Chaplin, USA 1916) and jump through 100 years of film history with the silent movie with music DAS LICHT (Anna Faroqhi, Haim Peretz, pupils of Anna-Seghers-GS, G 2015). We examine questions such as: How do film images move? What do old films have to do with filmmaking today? After the screening, we will create pictures without using a camera or projector.
