GOLEM

Dir. Carl Boese, Paul Wegener (91min, USA, 1920)
Narrative

Grammy-nominated Gary Lucas presents a reprisal of one of his most beloved original scores: the 1920 German silent horror-fantasy-expressionist film The Golem, the tale of a 16th century rabbi who made a man out of clay to save the Jewish community of Prague from annihilation.

Known for his work with Captain Beefheart, Jeff Buckley, and Gods and Monsters, and for his innovative film scores, Gary has been dubbed "The Thinking Man's Guitar Hero" by The New Yorker, "the world's most popular avant-rock guitarist" by The Independent (UK), "One of the 100 Greatest Living Guitarists" Classic Rock and the "Guitarist of 1000 Ideas" by The New York Times.
