Reel Back and Forth: 60 Years of Super-8

Showtime

Sunday, 23. March - 20:30

Theater Bremen - Kleines Haus

Super 8 came onto the market 60 years ago and made it possible and affordable for ambitious amateurs to shoot film for the first time. We are delighted that the Super 8 format enjoys cult status six decades later and that the Bremen Super 8 Evening has enjoyed unbroken popularity among filmmakers and audiences for 21 years now. This loop contains six films that were made as part of various Super 8 evenings organized by the Filmbüro. Some of them were dubbed with text, music or dialog, for others the soundtrack was recorded live in the cinema. What they all have in common is that no post-production or off-camera editing took place on the image level. An analog experiment in digital times and a tribute to the charm of Super 8. Admission is free.
