‘A STRANGE HOUR IN BUDAPEST’ – ZURICH CINEMA SCREENING

by Shunt Staff on June 8, 2012 in Latest News

We are now ready to announce the first in a series of live screening events for ‘A STRANGE HOUR IN BUDAPEST‘, to be held across several cities in Europe. This accompanies Recoil’s Blu-ray release of the full concert film, directed by Attila Herkó.

Plans are still being finalised for exactly what will happen in each city, but we can tell you that as well as full cinema-style presentations of the film with surround sound, Alan will be attending each venue to host a Q&A session about the ‘Selected Events’ tour and film project. There may well be extra documentaries screened, possible guest artists and special signed items for sale – plus other goodies – all followed by an Afterparty with DJs.

As with the deluxe edition of the Blu-ray, we expect tickets for these events to get snapped up fast as venue capacities only allow limited numbers. Entry prices will be kept very reasonable as a “thank you” to everyone who has invested in the Blu-ray disc. We have been knocked out with the response so far and will endeavour to keep stocks coming as demand requires.

So come and enjoy ‘A Strange Hour In Budapest’ in all its cinematic glory during September & October!

The first confirmed screening will be held in Zurich, Switzerland on 21st September at Moods. Founded 20 years ago, in recent years Moods has developed into one of the city’s largest and most important cultural venues. Within the Schiffbau, the club is located in an ideal spot right in the midst of Zurich’s pulsing 5th District. It boasts a global reputation amongst musicians and critics alike, not least due to its stylish bar where musicians and fans chat and debate well into the night. Alan will be conducting a Q&A session with the assistance of his old chum Reto Bühler, the famed narrator from Recoil’s ‘Black Box’ album opener for ‘Liquid’.
