Film Screening – “A Man There Was & The Wind”

At 2155 Center St

Downtown Berkeley

Step back into 1917 and 1928 with two haunting silent films by Swedish master Victor Sjöström, introduced by a UC Berkeley professor and brought to life with live piano. It is cinema as time machine: windswept deserts, crashing seas, and the golden glow of Lillian Gish, all without a single spoken word.
