Silent film

Experience a cinematic classic under the stars with Robert Wiene's "The Cabinet of Dr Caligari" at the Athens Concert Hall Garden (115 Vasilisis Sofias) on July 10. This silent film, a cornerstone of German Expressionism, will be accompanied by live music from Stathis Anninos, Dimitris Klonis and Rafael Meleteas. Tickets cost 15 euros from megaron.gr.

Watching someone falls over is arguably one of the funniest things ever. It is as if we are naturally inclined to burst out in laughter when someone experiences an accidental tumble. Legendary actor Charlie Chaplin probably pioneered the “fall over” comedy in moving pictures.

The Athens Concert Hall is hosting "The Immigrant," an event organized by the Fluxum Foundation and the Flux Laboratory to support refugee children, on Sunday, November 27.

Istanbul Modern Cinema will host the second International Istanbul Silent Cinema Days between Dec. 3 and 6. 

Bringing together pioneer examples of cinema accompanied by live music, the festival's corporate partners are Italy's world famous cinematheque, Cineteca di Bologna, and Eye Filmmuseum, a prestigious film museum in the Netherlands.
