Man with a movie camera/Dimensions of dialogue: Pecker

Special event: Three-piece band, Pecker, play a specially commissioned accompaniment to Dziga Vertov's legendary filmed wanderings around Moscow and Odessa in 1929. A master of the Russian avant-garde, Vertov presented a fascinating insight not only into Russian life during the first decade of communism but also into the development of early cinematic techniques. The main feature will be preceded by Dimensions of Dialogue, a short film by Jan Svankmajer and followed by a O&A with the band. [Clwyd Theatr brochure text]
