The Colour of Pomegranates [Sayat Nova]
1969 80mins Soviet Union (PG) Drama

Sergei Parajanov's celebrated masterpiece paints an astonishing portrait of the 18th century Armenian poet Sayat Nova, the 'King of Song'. Parajanov's aim was not a conventional biography but a cinematic expression of his work, resulting in an extraordinary visual poem. Key moments in his subject's life are illustrated through a series of exquisitely orchestrated tableaux filled with rich colour and stunning iconography, each scene a celluloid painting alive with stylised movement.

Battleship Potemkin [Bronenosets Potyomkin]
1925 75mins Soviet Union (PG) War

This performance will feature a live score performed by Hugo Max.

"My viola soundtrack for Battleship Potemkin unfolds with a similar propulsive dread as captured by Francis Bacon in his paintings of the screaming nurse from the infamous Odessa steps sequence. This is Eisenstein's masterwork with a visceral intensity, the daring set-pieces accompanied by angular, percussive melodies." - Hugo Max


Please view this YouTube video for a sample of Hugo's work.
