Transilvania International Film Festival: Cine-concert: Paris qui dort

Experience the surreal charm of René Clair’s 1925 debut, *Paris qui dort*, in the unique setting of the Transilvania International Film Festival’s Cine‑concert. For just one hour, watch as the streets of Paris are suddenly frozen by a mad scientist, leaving only a few characters to wander through a dreamlike, suspended cityscape that becomes both setting and character. The film’s inventive visuals transform the city into a playground of imagination, foreshadowing Clair’s future iconic style. Tonight, the iconic 60‑minute classic will be accompanied by a live, electrifying soundtrack performed in real time by Stéphane Scharlé—drummer, founder of the OZMA project, whose pioneering work blends music, image, and over 500 worldwide shows. From a traditional drum kit he builds his own instrument, layering rhythmic structures and surprising electronic effects to elevate the viewing experience. Don’t miss this rare combination of early cinema and contemporary sonic artistry—check details and tickets for the full event.
