L.I.F.T. (Leeds Intimate Film Theatre)
Hatti McKenzie and Eva Mileusnic of McM Productions present “L.I.F.T.”, (Leeds Intimate Film Theatre) – a surreal, uplifting, cinematic event integrating art installation, performance and public participation.
They have transformed a service/goods lift, located in a busy commercial complex in the centre of Leeds,UK, into a tiny retro Picture House installation. Join Hatti and Eva as they perform the colourful character roles of Cheryl (Usherette), Beryl (Box Office Lady), Cyril (Projectionist) and Arthur (Commissionaire) - all frantically striving to keep the Picture House functioning in between the lift’s ‘real job’ of providing regular service trips to the basement.
Selected 90 second films by artists and film makers who responded to the theme surreal, magical, macabre, sinister and funny will be screened on the hour and last 15 minutes.
Refreshments will be available during the interval and from the concession stand.
L.I.F.T. was created for Light Night Leeds and performed in 2008 & 2009.
