In this film-concert, Unsafe Space Duo (featuring Alexandra Saldanha Duarte and Nuno Saldanha Duarte, from the band Unsafe Space Garden) provides a live musical accompaniment to a selection of pioneering silent films, in which women defied conventions and had audiences in stitches over a century ago. From Florence Turner to Mabel Normand, including the visionary Alice Guy-Blaché, each film reveals the subtle humor, social satire, and inventiveness of these artists who reinvented everyday life with irreverence. Between car races, electrical experiments, and biting commentary on feminism, this family-friendly screening celebrates the talent of filmmakers and artists, cinema as entertainment, and the transformative power of laughter.
