Live Music-Cinema Event! A ramshackle river raft journey in the midst of ongoing economic and ecological collapse, filmed during Swoon's Swimming Cites of the Switchback Sea, performed with a live score by Dark Dark Dark. In advance of the upcoming feature film's release in Fall 2010, Flood Tide: Remixed is a 50-minute composition of footage from Flood Tide -- set to a live soundtrack written and performed by Dark Dark Dark.
It was the summer the gas stations closed. The summer they played music in the old mill. The summer they left. Flood Tide tells the story of four musicians who craft extraordinary boats out of whatever junk they can find and set out for open water. http://www.rooftopfilms.com/2010/schedule/44-flood-tide-remixed
FLOOD TIDE: REMIXED EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE FREE SHOW
Remixed has its debut showing at Socrates Sculpture Garden on the East River, less than a mile away from where the Swimming Cities fleet made an imaginary port in the East River two years ago, making this live music-cinema event a perfect selection for Rooftop Films, the Museum of the Moving Image and Socrates to kick off this summer screening series.
For this screening to happen, the filmmakers need to raise enough money to complete the film and get the band to New York! Donate to their Kickstarter Project and help make independent cinema happen!
Please go to the website to make a donation.
IN THE EVENT OF RAIN THE SHOW WILL BE HELD ON A RAIN DATE. CHECK WWW.ROOFTOPFILMS.COM OR CALL 718-417-7362 ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT IF THE WEATHER SEEMS QUESTIONABLE.
