Lucilin in the City#15: Das malerische Luxemburg
This episode of our Lucilin in the City independent concert series pierces through layers of time. “In the City,” yes… but when? The seven films selected by our guest Paul Lesch, evoke nostalgia for eras that preceded us and depict a Luxembourg of the past. From the depths of slate mines to the delicate bubbles of Mercier champagne, the program of this live cinema tells a Luxembourg as you’ve never seen it, as you will never see it again, yet strangely familiar due to its diversity. Between these period films and the music of contemporary composers, the gap is vast but above all, poetic.
In collaboration with the Centre National de l’Audiovisuel (CNA) and the Casino Luxembourg.
