With Live Score by People That Listen to the Sky.One of the masters of early German cinema, G. W. Pabst had an innate talent for discovering actresses (including Greta Garbo). And perhaps none of his female stars shone brighter than Kansas native and onetime Ziegfeld girl Louise Brooks, whose legendary persona was defined by this melodrama of lust, greed and violence.
Pabst’s startlingly modern adaptation of Wedekind’s Lulu plays follows the downward spiral of a vivacious showgirl, brought vibrantly to life by Brooks, wreaking casual havoc on all she encounters through the sheer power of charisma. Daring and stylish, Pandora's Box is one of silent cinema's great masterworks and a testament to Brooks's dazzling individuality.
People That Listen to the Sky is a multinational, multi-instrumental project based in the Northwest of Ireland (Derry/Donegal). With three core members, the group creates immersive soundscapes that fuse dark ambient, post-rock, experimental, and electronic elements which has been described as cinematic, atmospheric, and dark.
