As part of Scalarama Leeds, we’re hosting something a little different. We’ll be screening Dog Star Man (1961–1964), a series of short experimental films directed by Stan Brakhage, accompanied by experimental live music performed by Mani S and Sam D.
Described as a "cosmological epic", Dog Star Man traces the journey of a woodsman who climbs a mountain with his dog to cut down a tree. Along the way, he encounters a series of visionary experiences, marked by recurring, symbolic imagery.
