In collaboration
with Bergen
International
Film Festival
(BIFF)
Movie night
​ daptations of Hoffmann’s
A
The Sandman and inter-
pretations of the Festival
theme longing.
With four great movies lined up, presen-
ted in a relaxed atmosphere and refres-
hments being served, Festival Square is
set for a small movie marathon.
The Sandman, a title in this year's
programme, has been subject to
various film adaptations. Paul Berry's
Oscar-nominated The Sandman (1991,
10 mins.) in its touched up version
(2017) is a sombre stop motion movie
where an evil intruder gives a little boy
a horrible nightmare in his bedroom in
the middle of the night.
The Quay Brothers have also made a
Supported by
version in collaboration with dancer
Grieg Foundation and choreographer William Tuckett. In
The Sandman (2000, 40 mins.), music
by György Kurtág and Leoš Janáček,
a demonic character from one of
Hoffman's own stories appears by the
author's deathbed to end the story.
FiB x BIFF also presents a brand-
new documentary and a highly
relevant feature film related to the
festival theme longing. The titles
are announced a month ahead at
www.fib.no/biff.
