EV 04 Sound & Vision

Sound and vision: though they may lose a little something in German translation, the truth is that these three little words stand for top-shelf audio-visual creations – no wonder this is one of the most beloved programs at INTERFILM. We are proud to present gripping short films on one of the city's largest screens, drawn from diverse genres and the past two production years, and – to top it all off – featuring brand-new sounds. Featuring novel soundtracks specially composed for this evening by the hottest bands in Berlin, SOUND & VISION opens the way for a new experience of moving images, sound and their interrelation, heightened by the unique in-situ spatial aspects of the Volksbühne.
