Germany/1920/71mins/U. Dir: Robert Weine. With Friedrich Feher, Werner Krauss, Conrad Veidt.

To coincide with the ninetieth anniversary of this classic silent horror film Cipher will be joining us to perform their new score live. The Cabinet of Dr Caligari is one of the earliest, most influential and most artistically acclaimed German Expressionist films telling the story of the deranged Doctor and his faithful sleepwalking Cesare, and their connection to a string of murders. Critics worldwide have praised the film for its wild, distorted set design and the film also boasts one of the first attempts at a twist ending, something quite new and shocking for its time. Cipher’s score incorporates hypnotic low flutes, haunting saxophones, dark soundscapes, pulsing beats, deep bass and rich textural landscapes.
