(Erik Gandini / 2009 / Italy / 85 minutes / certificate 15 / subtitles)
An intriguing documentary on Silvio Berlusconi and Italy's TV dominated culture. The trailer was banned by the Italian state broadcaster. It pinpoints a situation 30 years ago starting a revolution through TV in Italy when a show featured housewives stripping, and at this point Berlusconi realised that being President of television was to be president of the whole country. Gandini has fascinating access behind the scenes of Berlusconi's empire.

(Fri 3rd Sept / 7.30pm / £6, £5 advance)

The Cube is very happy to welcome back HREDA; a band that manage to sound crushingly heavy and heavenly crushing at the same time. Mixing elements of Prog, Post-Rock and Post-Hardcore HREDA play like a well oiled steam train; the three minds of two guitars and drums combining to sound like a single, complex entity; bringing to mind Neurosis, Isis and GY!BE at their heaviest and most beautiful.

Releasing their début album on Bristol’s Invada Records, Thought Forms Come across like Bad Moon Rising era Sonic Youth crossed with Sunn O))) mixing in Grouper on vocals for good measure; This band are truly exhilarating and awe-inspiring live.

Anta lay on riffs like seismic plates then throw them around like drunken Gods at a birthday party. These are truly the children of King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Sleep and Isis.

Bar 'til late with sounds from Archaeologists of America Young Team.

Emily Jane White + Douglas James + The Mountain Parade image

Image by: internet scavenged

20:00 04/09/2010

Sat 4th/ 8pm/ £7 advance

Emily Jane White conjures a haunted America from half-remembered folksongs, spooky crossroad blues and Edgar Allen Poe spirituals, singing songs that move with the stately, melancholic rhythms of a Gothic funeral. With a voice often compared to Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star or Chan Marshall of Cat Power, Emily's music has a dark beauty all its own.

Douglas James sings shanties from distant pirate shores and the bottom of the stormy ocean. Raucous and tender, euphoric and regretful by turns, his songs draw comparisons to the damaged majesty of Tom Waits.

The Mountain Parade make sweet-toned pastoral folk pop with ukuleles, banjos and joyous horns.

Bristol Indymedia Presents: Prison?

Bristol Indymedia Presents: Prison? image

Image by: bristol indymedia

20:00 06/09/2010

(Mon 6th Sept / 7.30pm / £4/3 but nobody turned away for lack of funds)
Bristol Anarchist Bookfair, in association with Bristol Indymedia and Bristol ABC, present PRISON?

A one man performance written and performed by Charlie Ryder. This is a true story which is creatively told using a variety of theatrical devices including puppetry, masks, physical theatre and dance.

In October 1993 Charlie Ryder took part in a demonstration to shut down the BNP headquarters in Welling, south-east London. This developed into a serious riot, and a few months later he was featured on the TV show Crime Monthly. He was arrested and after a two year wait was sent to prison for 16 months. In prison Charlie kept a scrapbook to record poems, letters and art work. Charlie, not a professional actor but an open and impassioned performer, has brought the scrapbook to life as a full production.

What does going to prison really entail? This gives a rare and honest insight into the prison system, putting a face to what is often the faceless idea of 'the prisoner'. The play depicts the trauma of prison, in particular the de-humanising effects of well known procedures, such as being strip-searched, are clearly examined.

At the end of the show Charlie will hold a Q and A session - your opportunity to debate and discuss issues raised by the show.

(Tues 7th – Wed 8th / 8pm / £4/£3/£2 TTT)

(Dylan Goch & Gruff Rhys / Wales / 2009 / 84 mins)

"When I was a kid, I used to watch this guy on television wearing a cape, riding a horse, and singing Welsh in a strange accent. I asked my grandmother who he was and she said, '-That's your uncle.'…”

Inspired by this lasting memory, ‘Separado!’ is Gruff Rhys’ ‘psychedelic western musical’; by turns a music tour film, a magical road movie, and a social history documentary. Director Dylan Goch chronicles Gruff’s travels through time and across continents, from Wales to Patagonia (via Brazil), as the Super Furry Animal embarks upon an epic personal quest to find distant relatives old and new. In doing so, he investigates the story of 19th century Welsh emigration to Argentina, bewilders local residents with his eclectic live performances, and gets chased by an armadillo…

A vivid and imaginative musical odyssey, imbued with Gruff’s characteristically playful sense of fun and wonder.

Nothing Productions presents: A Night at The Cube - the first in a series of eclectic comedy melt-downs.

Earlier this year a rogue group of Bristol performers started meeting up late at night in underground rehearsal rooms around the city. They didn't really know why, but they did. They drifted around trying out sketches, improvising dance routines and playing with each others' puppets.
And now they've been talked into A Night at The Cube...

(Sun 12th: 3pm & 8pm / Mon 13th: 9pm / £4/£3)

(Christopher Nolan / USA / 2010 / 148 mins / Cert: 12A)

Leonardo DiCaprio plays Dom Cobb, a highly skilled Extraction Agent hired to steal corporate secrets from the subconscious minds of the rich and powerful as they dream. For this one last job though, his task is not to steal an idea, but to plant one.

Along with the team of specialists he’s enlisted to support him, Cobb plunges into dreams within dreams, descending ever deeper and darker, all the while battling formidable manifestations of their target’s psychic defences. To add to this, it becomes clear that the biggest threat they face is actually Cobb’s own hidden secrets, which increasingly threaten to undermine the entire mission.

Following his huge success reinvigorating the ‘Batman’ franchise, and echoing some of the same multi-layered narrative structures he’s previously utilised in ‘Memento’ and ‘The Prestige’, director Christopher Nolan successfully juggles yet another ambitious puzzle. ‘Inception’ is a cerebral blockbuster that’s part sci-fi action thriller, part metaphysical heist movie, and which questions the nature of reality, memory, and the power of emotions.

Antoni Maiovvi
Over from Berlin and playing a full live set is Antoni Maiovvi. His music is akin to the overwhelming horror of the stalked. He has been creating
psychotronic disco for the criminally insane since 2005 having emerged from the UK's underground noise scene, here presenting retro-futurist b-movie soundtracks with the precision and flair of an Argento death sequence.

Jacob's Stories
One of Brighton's best kept secrets, Jacob's Stories creates a specific blend of dark, ethereal melancholic pop music. He has extensively toured the UK and the US, and has played with the artists Scott Walker, Xiu Xiu, Oxbow, Vessels and Richard Walters.

Documentary : Lanfranchi's Memorial Discotheque
Lanfranchi's Memorial Discotheque was Sydney’s favourite artist-run space, situated on he second level of an inner city warehouse. Lanfranchi’s doubled as a residence and unauthorised performance venue for 5 years, growing from unlikely beginnings to become what director Neil Armfield described as a ‘major strand of our city’s cultural DNA’. The decaying warehouse hosted hundreds of shows and was an accessible starting point for Sydney’s emerging performers, artists and musicians. That is, until property development gets in the way and Lanfranchi’s residents are given 60 days to vacate the building. The story of Lanfranchi’s is told through ex-residents such as Lucas Abela (Justice Yeldham) and David Harris (Toecutter).

Dagger Brothers will be DJ'ing in the bar, and maybe even performing.... Also stalls selling art work in various mediums by Gary Burgerlips, Christopher! and African Apparel.

Image by: internet scavenged

20:00 24/09/2010

plus Woodtripper
(Fri 24th Sep 2010 / 8pm / £6 adv)

Qu Junktions brings on pure phase and distorted pop logic from three acts who have emerged from the passing kriss-krossed currents of cheap AM pop, distressed easy listening and a weird love for 90's electronica. Sounds that endure and refresh.

Ducktails is Matthew Mondanile from New Jersey, who makes raw, mostly
instrumental pop music that is two parts heart to one part hypnagogic: sweet, dewy analogue drones, huggable guitar figures that nuzzle at classic rock’s sensitive bosom, and simple tin machine rhythms help propel Mondanile’s present into the warm fuzz of the past. Also one of subsurface pop gang Real Estate, and with strong links to the Skaters/Olde English Spelling Bee axis of psychedelic semi-recall, check last year’s “Landscapes” album for the heartiest portion of Ducktails soup yet, and get ready to slurp yerself happy.

Fading in from Flanders, Belgium, Dolphins into the Future plunges us yet further down the memory well. By turns strange, primal, intimate and
transcendental, this is a beautifully drowsy Lowlands take on James Ferraro’s more reflective moments of spooled quasi-devotional psych, with swooning prose from The Wire for last album proper “The Music Of Belief” and a whole library of tapes and CDRs to get lost in besides. “Camp-fiery mind music that sounds like taking a bird-watching nature hike in a sequencer”, froths Impose Magazine, not incorrectly.

Some highly desirables will be hung and priced accordingly (the £1000 mark range) others will be snapped up for a couple of pounds. Peruse the prized works of Andrew Mania and Ben Newman, Sony award winning photographer Tamany Baker and Adam Faraday, Jerwood collected Aaron Sewards, the infamous MOTORBOY, musicians such as Beardyman, Francois and Rozi and core cube artists such as Lady Lucy, Kayle Brandon and Mr Hopkinson. Annabel Other offers up a selection from The Bristol Art Library gift shop while you can snap up prints from Spike Print Studio, originals from Aardman Studios and some QuJunktion limited edition posters. And there’s so much more still to be announced. Plus cakes, raffles, live music and children's art activities all day. Come rummage. Fill you boots for an excellent good cause.

To keep up to date with artists and events visit our blog (http://nanoplex.cubecinema.com/blog/). HKKP is a big project for a small microplex and we'd love your support. If you'd like to contribute get in touch haitikidskino@cubecinema.com.

Milon

Dino Christodoulou's sax compositions have influences ranging from middle eastern folk to contemporary jazz and memories of Cypriot weddings and family gatherings.

Pop Parker

Singer-Songwriter Pop Parker will be pickin' on a spanish guitar and singing beautiful songs about domestic violence, self-mutilation and farm machinery.

Death In America, A Chronological History Of Illness And Death

 Death In America, A Chronological History Of Illness And Death	 image

Image by: internet scavenged

20:00 30/09/2010

Thurs 30th Sept / 8pm / £4/3

WARNING: CONTAINS IMAGES THAT SOME WILL FIND OFFENSIVE.

The fashion for photographing the recently deceased during the late Nineteenth Century in America is a now largely forgotten craze; swept under the proverbial carpet by the ancestors of those photographed dead.

This documentary is based on the Sleeping Beauty books by Lawrence B. Burns, owner of the largest collection of memorial photography in the world. Featuring in depth interviews with Burns as well as many scholars and professionals this film serves as the chronology of death in America, explaining how the subject of dying was eventually sanitized and made taboo in the Twentieth Century as ‘the site of death’ moved from the family parlor to the funeral parlor and diseases such as diphtheria and scarlet fever were conquered with the introduction of penicillin.

The film will be preceded by a slideshow of Memorial Photographs and
accompanying talk.

20:00 01/10/2010

Tickets: £4

Lund Quartet are a new instrumental band from Bristol, playing a blend of Scandinavian jazz and melodic turntablism.

The band features piano, double bass, drums, turntable, and theremin, and moves between delicate experimental soundscapes and satisfying grooves. The use of the turntable as a lead instrument gives Lund Quartet an especially distinctive sound, using samples recorded especially for the band by some of Bristol's finest musicians.

Individually the members of Lund Quartet have been playing in Bristol for years in bands as diverse as The Glitzy BagHags, Dr Meaker and Ben Wesbeech. They have been writing together for a couple of years, but only in 2010 have they begun gigging and recording seriously. Lund Quartet recently played a packed out gig at the Future Inn Jazz Club in Bristol, a lazy Sunday afternoon on Queens Square at the Harbourside Festival, as well as reaching the finals of the Future Of Jazz competition. They are currently recording their first EP, due to be released in time for this much anticipated gig at the Cube.

Josephine Foster & The Victor Herrero Band + Guests

19:30 02/10/2010

Tickets: £9 adv

One of the most luminous and enlightening American singers of her time sings Federico Garcia Lorca’s popular folk song collection “Las Canciones Populares Espanolas” with guitarist Victor Herroro and live band. Singing in Spanish, playing the castanets and dancing, Josephine brings to life these famous songs from one of Europe's finest poets and dramatists.

Josephine describes the band “as like a Andalusian jug band playing very energetic and animated music”. Taking their cue from Lorca and La Argentinita’s infectious 1931 recording of the songs, Josephine Foster and her partner Spanish musician Victor Herrero have arranged the poetically rich collection for their new acoustic band, formed while living in the Grenadine Sierra.

“She’s a Grace Slick for the 21st Century - and that’s all grace, no slick. An amazing combination of God-given ability and formal skill. You can hear Jefferson Airplane in her music, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Joan Baez… She’s also the one, out of that whole scene, that has embraced the electric guitar, while at the same time being the most classical of them all.” - Jay Babcock / Arthur
