In this one-off performance, Charbel Haber plays a new musical score to Stan Brakhage’s The Horseman, the Woman, and the Moth (1968)a mythical story drawn directly onto the film’s surface, which is painted, dyed, and treated to grow crystals and mold. Some images are stamped on the film while others, such as actual moth wings, are collaged on to the celluloid, evoking colorful and dreamlike visions. The Horseman, the Woman, and the Moth is screened in Lebanon for the first time.
