Silent Shorts & Live Sounds

Heldeke!, Tallinn

Ladies, gentlemen and others, film fanatics and lovers of the peculiar!

This May, the magic of early cinema doesn’t just return for one night… it lingers, transforms, and unfolds across three shimmering evenings.

Each night reveals a new theme:

7th of May, we'll be traveling to the land of cabaret

8th of May, we'll discover the wonderfully strange world of early animation

9th of May, we'll dive deep into horror

A handpicked selection of early cinematic marvels will unspool before your eyes, while musicians perform live, each conjuring their own soundtrack in the moment. Every film, every night, every musical adventure will be different.

Your host, Brit Kikas-Booth, will guide you through each evening, introducing a rotating world of surreal spectacles, and long-forgotten wonders from cinema’s earliest decades.
