AUXXX + BROTFABRIK present Cinesthesia Screen Concert

FILM: 1984 | USA 1956 | 1h 30min |

LIVE MUSIC: ELLIOTT SHARP - guitar

Elliott Sharp says: “Impossible to see for most of my life, the 1956 film version of George Orwell’s 1984 reveals a gritty noir sensibility combined with a cynical world view, unwittingly reinforcing Orwell’s very message. The text of 1984 has never rung more true than in our current times."
