FILM

Chopin: I’m Not Afraid of Darkness

Spazju Kreattiv is today screening an unusual documentary film taking the viewer on a cinematic journey through unique and sinister sceneries while asking whether classical music can heal places affected by war and suffering. The documentary weaves the stories of three outstanding pianists, a Pole, a Korean and a Syrian immigrant, who prepare for special concerts where no one would expect to hear live music: at the former German Nazi Concentration Camp Auschwitz-Birkenau, on the border with dictatorial North Korea and in the centre of Beirut, Lebanon, right after the explosion in the port there.

Chopin: I’m Not Afraid of Darkness was awarded at the 59th Golden Prague International Festival and will be screened worldwide.

Following the screening at 7.30pm tomorrow, there will be a Q&A session with the producer of the film, Maciej Pawelczyk. The Q&A will be moderated by Polish actress Monika Jarosinska.

There will be another screening on November 11 at 6pm. For tickets, log on to www.kreattivita.org.
