The Underground Orchestra
18

Spanning five decades and four continents, A River Runs Between Our Streets is a weekend of screenings which brings together work by 22 international artists, filmmakers and collectives in a dialogue about the complexities, realities and poetics of migration.

Artist Film

Rarely screened in the UK, The Underground Orchestra is a documentary portrait of a disparate collection of international musicians from Bosnia, Romania, Argentina, Armenia, Algeria, Venezuela, Zaire, Mali and Vietnam. United by their experiences of exile and political repression, they make their way by playing music on the streets of Paris and in the metro.

With the intense curiosity that characterised all of her work, Honigmann follows them through the city’s underground and immigrant quarters, listening to their music, and to the often harrowing stories that brought them there.

Pieter van Huystee, the producer of The Underground Orchestra and many of Honigmann’s other documentaries, will join us remotely for a Q&A session after the film.
